Microsoft and leading training provider uke learning have together launched the UK’s first online IT Apprenticeship programme, allowing would be IT support experts to learn remotely using home and work computers. The first intake of Apprentices, who are earning while they learn, started the programme just in time for National Apprenticeship Week 7-11 February 2011, and will sit their first exams in a couple of weeks.
At uke learning, we provide training that helps people to make genuine improvements in their skills. Our reputation for taking learners from potential to achievement is built on sustained quality and measured growth. We don’t just run courses; we work co-operatively with you to get the right blend and balance of support to enable you to succeed. We offer high value solutions to both employers and learners, ensuring that training is delivered to the right people at the right time, bringing dividends in improved performance, increased skills, efficiency savings and better staff retention. We are proud to announce further learndirect awards success with two clients winning the Small/Medium Company category for their regions.
Strathmore Care has received the Small/Medium Company award for the East of England region, with BILA Disability in Action winning the same category for the London region.
We’d like to offer our congratulations to all our finalists for their achievements at the 2010 regional learndirect awards and wish Strathmore Care and BILA the very best of luck for the national judging process which begins at the end of this month. |
The new Apprenticeships are being run as part of Microsoft’s Britain Works 3 year employment initiative. The pilot combines remote delivery with holistic support from a tutor both online and by telephone, combined with brief periods in a classroom setting. This blended delivery model enables businesses to engage in IT Apprenticeships in a way that was not previously possible, allowing the active recruitment of Apprentices as full-time employees on day one of the Apprenticeship, no matter where they are located.
