Our Associate Project Manager Apprenticeship is designed to empower you with the essential knowledge and skills to grasp project management principles, utilise tools, and employ techniques vital for ensuring successful project outcomes.
You will cover topics such as project stakeholder engagement, communication, budgeting, and risk management, ensuring you’re equipped with the tools to excel in your project management journey. You will also gain a comprehensive understanding of how to effectively allocate and utilise resources, as well as navigate the intricacies of contract and procurement processes. By delving into these critical areas, you’ll be equipped not only to manage projects successfully but also to optimise resources, mitigate risks, and drive efficiency throughout every stage of your project management journey.
Successful completion of this apprenticeship will lead to eligibility to apply for Associate membership of the Chartered Association for Project Management (APM).
This apprenticeship standard covers the core skills, knowledge and behaviours to demonstrate competency of a Project Manager and covers key requirements to include:
You will develop your skills, knowledge and behaviours through on and off-the-job training and are expected to attend College for pre-arranged masterclasses.
You will need to have relevant employment, and entry is subject to interview and assessment.
GCSE English and maths grade 4/C or above (or Level 2 functional skills) are preferred.
After successful completion of the apprenticeship, you may have the opportunity to upskill to the Level 5 Operations or Departmental Manager Apprenticeship or other relevant university-level qualification.
Your progress will be continuously monitored and supported by a Professional Trainer.
Depending on the standard, we assess your competence through various methods, such as practical exams, assignments, interviews, project work, presentations or observations and we will also evaluate your portfolio of evidence, which documents your learning and progress throughout your apprenticeship with us.
The apprenticeship end-point assessment is the final evaluation stage of your apprenticeship programme. It's designed to determine whether you have achieved the knowledge, skills, and behaviours required to meet the apprenticeship standard and perform the job role independently.
Successful completion of the end-point assessment is required to receive certification.
College is not just about your course – it’s an opportunity to have fun, meet new people and explore your interests! You can socialise with friends in the café and comfy seating areas, join a club or sports team or attend exciting events around the college. Many of our enrichment opportunities are also great on your CV or UCAS application to demonstrate your commitment and enthusiasm outside of your studies.
Your time at college can also be affected by life or health difficulties, and it’s okay to need support. Our specialist teams are here every day to listen and give advice, whether it’s about career planning, financial support, mental health, or something else. And if you have a long-term support need or medical condition, we’ll work with you on personalised learning support to help you achieve your full potential.
