  • Are you involved in assessing the new apprenticeships?
  • Are you clear about your role and responsibilities in the context of the new apprenticeships?
  • Do you need support in being an effective learning facilitator?

One of the key features of the new standards-based apprenticeships is the role of learning mentors and coaches and the need to support apprentices throughout their journey and prepare them for end-point assessment. This book takes you through the essentials of learning and development, and the principles and practice of mentoring, coaching and assessing learning. Whatever your vocational subject, this accessible and concise text provides you with an in-depth understanding of these areas and how to effectively apply them to practice.

 
 

This is an excellent introduction to the new apprenticeships for both existing teachers and those who are looking to move into teaching. It provides an overview of the qualifications available and walks the reader through learning and teaching, mentoring apprentices and assessment. The authors have included useful activities and scenarios for the reader to work through. Overall an excellent book.
