Employers in England should make sure any new apprentices are enrolled on the new RACHP EngTech trailblazer programme from September. Colleges and independent training providers are now gearing up to deliver to the new standard, which will be a three year course during which candidates will study a Level 2 and Level 3 qualification. The Apprenticeship is currently available from City & Guilds and existing training providers currently offering the old Mechanical Engineering Services (RACHP) qualifications and apprenticeship have to register to deliver the new scheme, with a fast-track approvals process available in most cases. More information about funding availability and how you can find apprenticeship candidates is available at
City & Guilds, a registered Assessment Organisation for the new RACHP Eng Tech Level 3 Apprenticeship, are inviting training providers to pre-register so that they can start delivering the new Apprenticeship in September this year (2016). An information webinar is being held on 9th June to explain how the registration process will work, and introduce the new qualifications that will underpin delivery. Further webinars are scheduled for September when the Qualification Handbooks and Work Place Workbook Templates will be available. Contact Chris Bailey, Scheme Manager at City & Guilds to find out more about how your centre can deliver the new qualifications and apprenticeship.
