After completing an Engineering and Manufacturing Technician apprenticeship, you can pursue a variety of career paths. You could continue working as a technician, specializing in areas like mechanical, electrical, or manufacturing processes. Further education, such as obtaining a Higher National Certificate (HNC) or degree in engineering, could open opportunities for roles in design, project management, or engineering management. Alternatively, you might move into supervisory or leadership positions, overseeing production teams or managing operations. With your technical background, you could also explore roles in quality control, process improvement, or even start your own business in the engineering or manufacturing sector.
Assessment during your apprenticeship will be through assignments. Each outcome or module will be assessed by a project-style assignment. There will be additional tasks on the college OneFile system. At the end of the apprenticeship students will complete an End Point Assessment consisting of:
Assessment method 1: Observation with questioning Assessment method 2: Professional discussion supported by a portfolio of evidence
There is no cost to an apprentice. If you are an employer employing an apprentice over the age 21 (without an EHCP) then you are likely to pay 5% towards the training cost. If you are an employer with an Apprenticeship levy (i.e. your payroll exceeds £3 Million) then you will pay in full from your levy account.
