The 20% Off-The-Job Training Explained HR Apprenticeships

As experienced HR Apprenticeship providers, we are often asked by employers about the 20 per cent off-the-job training requirement and how this will affect their business.

The policy, which requires apprentices in all sectors to spend overall one fifth of their working time on learning activities, is cited by many as being the single biggest barrier to Apprenticeship recruitment.

This need not be the case. Much of the concern is as a result of confusion about what off-the-job training actually means and as leaders in HR and L&D, we want to change that perception.
