Last Update a year ago
A master Apprenticeship Course template brings together all key components required to deliver and manage a program effectively. This includes:
Course Details – essential for accurate funding claims
Resources – materials to support learning and delivery
Competencies – mapped to Knowledge, Skills, and Behaviours (KSBs)
Activities – tasks learners must complete to progress through the course
Calendar – outlining key milestones and important dates
Files – relevant documents associated with the course
Eligible Costs – detailed further in a separate article
This article will guide you through the process of creating a master course template and adding the initial Course Details.
