Apprenticeships and Scottish Vocational Qualifications combine work with study, so you can earn while you learn. It is an exciting way of gaining a recognised qualification that will help to start your career without having to study full time.
By studying this course, you will be able to formally demonstrate and gain recognition of your competence and knowledge.

You will work with experienced colleagues and with the support of a dedicated assessor, you will gather examples of everyday tasks and build an e-portfolio of evidence.
It is a legal requirement by the SSSC  that all staff in early years settings are working towards or have already achieved this qualification or equivalent.

We can tailor the frameworks to fit different job roles. The Modern Apprenticeship aspect of this course has been designed in partnership with the Sector Skills Council: Skills for Care and Development, ensuring that you will be highly qualified and skilled.

You should be in a job role where you are carrying out relevant tasks and responsibilities which allow you to gather the required evidence to achieve the qualification.

You should already have a valid PVG Scheme membership through your workplace before commencing this course.
