The report focuses on how to enhance quality, increase employer commitment, and ensure learning is prioritized. It proposes a 25-point action plan addressing quality, access, employer leadership, and ensuring learning is central.

The goal is for apprenticeships to become sustainable career programs on par with degrees as desirable pathways for young people.
1) The document discusses a skills gap in the UK construction industry due to an aging workforce and lack of young people entering the field. It outlines new higher degree apprenticeship programs called "Trailblazers" aimed at addressing this skills shortage.

This document provides an overview of a workshop on understanding work styles presented using the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) assessment. The workshop objectives are to understand individual preferences in how people function, behave, work, lead, and communicate. The agenda includes introductions, the history and concepts of the MBTI, validating participants' types, and exercises. The presentation covers the four dichotomies assessed by the MBTI: Extraversion vs Introversion, Sensing vs Intuition, Thinking vs Feeling, and Judging vs Perceiving. Communication clues are provided to detect these preferences.
This document discusses personality types and how understanding personality differences can help people get along better. It introduces the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) personality assessment, which categorizes people into 16 types based on their preferences in four areas: extraversion/introversion, sensing/intuition, thinking/feeling, and judging/perceiving. By learning one's own type and understanding how to communicate effectively with different types, people can build stronger relationships, work together more productively, and create a more harmonious world.

the original content of the 1973 TPS manual1 was written by
the staff2 of Toyota Motor Corp. (OMCD - Operations Management Consulting Division.
By 1970, Toyota had a fairly stable production system internally and they made a decision to
assist suppliers by sharing their knowledge and skills. To do this, Toyota created a special
internal improvement group called Production Research Division (later renamed Operations
Management Consulting Division – OMCD)
his 1973 manual was also used as course materials by Ohno and his team – the Japanese
Management Association compiled their workshop materials and released it as a book in the
1978. Productivity Press translated it and released it as Kanban: Just-in-time at Toyota in
1986. While much of the Productivity Press book consists of the same materials as the 1973
TPS Manual, it is not presented in the same order.

Multicultural Apprenticeship Alliance Launch Slide - Safaraz AliThe Pathway Group
The document discusses promoting diversity in apprenticeships for people from Black, Asian, and minority ethnic (BAME) backgrounds in the UK. It notes various government and organizational initiatives to increase BAME representation in apprenticeships and senior roles. These include commitments to increase the proportion of BAME apprentices by 20% and initiatives by groups like the BAME Apprenticeship Alliance to celebrate BAME apprentice talent and address barriers to participation. Experts critique some initiatives as not doing enough and call for more focus on specific ethnic groups and support for employers in diversifying their workforces.

7. Tailoring iLearner to our customers needs
iLearner can be ‘skinned’ to reflect our customers’ website styles
All users can login to iLearner via our customers’ website or intranet
Our customers can add additional fields to iLearner to record the
data they need (and report on those fields)
iCQ certificates can include our customers’ logos
8. Transparent pricing
iCQ pricing recognises that funding is paid in instalments – so our
prices are end loaded (supporting cash flow)
Our iLearner registration includes registration for as many
qualifications as the learner needs - ever (supporting progression)
Certificates - pay on completion – for achievers only
When iCQ need to increase prices (not every year) – we generally
give 12 months notice
12. Funding landscape
We are nearing the end (hopefully) of changes to how qualifications
are funded and which qualifications can be funded
Funding changes have coincided with the change from QCF to RQF
16. AEB localisation
SfA Priorities and Funding for the 2016 to 2017 Funding Year:
Nick Boles (Minister of State for Skills)
• ‘In future ….. delivery agreements with providers should reflect local priorities
which might include, for example, job outcomes and English and maths
achievements. The Government’s view is that the AEB funds what is
essentially a local service and that in the right circumstances it can be better
for funding and responsibilities to be held at local level rather than national
level.’
17. AEB localisation
Localisation – 6 eligibility criteria to be met for a qualification to be
funded
Eligibility criteria are aligned EfA criteria (16-18 year olds)
Localisation (local flexibility) funded programmes may or may not
include a qualification
19. Advanced learner loans from August 2016
Learner loans available to those aged 19 and over (not just 24+)
Learner loans available for Levels 3 to 6 (not just Levels 3 and 4)
Above expansions partly explain the increased budgets
21. How we support our customers
AEB localisation –
• Most iCQ qualifications are funded (though the Hub will only be updated in
April 2016)
• Develop new qualifications in partnership with customers
• iLearner supports the delivery of in-house programmes in addition to RQF
qualifications
22. How we support our customers
Learner loans –
• Many iCQ Level 3 and 4 qualifications are funded already
• We can add additional qualifications to the funding list (monthly) where
there is employer demand (generally support from 5 employers)
• We will develop qualifications where there is a demand from customers and
their employers
23. Trailblazer standards (TS)
TS will replace existing apprenticeship frameworks (by 2020?)
TS and Assessment Plans are written by employers and approved by
BIS
TS are usually 2 pages long and include
• Knowledge and understanding
• Skills

24. Trailblazer standards (TS)
All TS include an independent end point assessment (EPA)
• EPA must be conducted by an approved assessment organisation
Apprentices will be graded, where possible
Maths and English (Functional Skills or GCSE) a requirement

An employer-led, independent body to regulate the quality of
trailblazer standards and delivery, the IfA will –
• undertake quality and approval functions in relation to apprenticeship
standards and assessment plans
• have wider quality assurance functions, including making arrangements for
assessing the quality of the end point assessment for each apprenticeship
• have responsibility to advise Government of funding allocations per each
apprenticeship standard
IfA should be fully operational by April 2017
28. Trailblazers
‘Go live’ this year alongside existing frameworks
Existing frameworks will be phased out (by 2020?)
We have –
• Trailblazer standards
• Trailblazer assessment plans
• Approved standards are available at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/apprenticeship-
standards-ready-for-delivery
Qualifications are generally not included in the new apprenticeships
29. Trailblazer delivery

Providers can contract with employers to deliver training
Providers cannot deliver training and EAP to the same employer
Employers can be providers or an assessment organisation
