Objectives

• The Presswork sector has a massive skills shortage identified from a CBM survey taken in 2016

• The CBM objective is to help reduce this problem for our sheet metal, presswork members.

The new MPS is the first Engineering centre of its kind in the UK to demonstrate, train & educate sheet metal forming processes linked to promoting process & press tool design & toolmaking skills as a long term career opportunity.

It gives the trainee the opportunity to have a hands on experience under the guidance of the workshop technician.

This facility is for;

• apprentice trailblazer training• Upskilling existing workforce, Bite size courses

• Engineering graduates (to understand the process)• Educating school children.

The MPS offers,

• Twin Power Press Cell

• Press Brake

• Mini Profile Rolling Machine

• Tool Repair Area

• CAE Classroom

The Foundation Phase Gateway Assessment is intended to assess the apprentice’s individual ability to apply the skills, knowledge and

behaviours they have learnt and developed within the foundation phase of their apprenticeship. This qualification will not assess competence

as this will have already been assessed as part of the Foundation Phase Competency Qualification. This qualification is not graded;

apprentice’s can achieve a Pass/Fail or be Refered.

The Foundation Phase Gateway Assessment comprises of practical scenario/s and a set of related tasks. The scenario/s will be based on a

typical situation that is likely to occur in the workplace. The tasks will provide explicit instructions about the activities that the apprentice will

need to complete in a way that demonstrates skills, knowledge and behaviours they have learnt and developed within the foundation phase

of their apprenticeship.

EAL Level 3 End point Assessment assessment (Development Competence) Qualification Code:


behaviours they have learnt and developed within the foundation phase of their apprenticeship. This qualification will not assess competence as this will have already been assessed as part of the Foundation Phase Competency Qualification. This qualification is not graded; apprentice’s

can achieve a Pass/Fail or be Refered.

What do this assessment cover?The Foundation Phase Gateway Assessment comprises of practical scenario/s and a set of related tasks. The scenario/s will be based on a

typical situation that is likely to occur in the workplace. The tasks will provide explicit instructions about the activities that the apprentice will need to complete in a way that demonstrates skills, knowledge and behaviours they have learnt and developed within the foundation phase of

their apprenticeship.

Apprenticeship recruitmentTrevor Codner, Wolverhampton University


Benefits of Apprenticeships

• According to The National Apprenticeship Service1 :

96% of employers that take on an apprentice reports benefits to their business

72% of businesses report improved productivity as a result of employing an apprentice.

80% of employers feel that apprenticeships reduce staff turnover.

70% of surveyed employers said apprenticeships improved product quality and service2

The average apprenticeship increases business productivity by £214 per week.

Apprenticeship Levy

• Levy Payers and Non- Levy payers• Started April 2017 and the funds will be collected by the HMRC • Only employers with a wage bill of £3m or more will pay the

levy • This will ben then banked in the Digital Apprenticeship Service

(account) • The Apprenticeship levy can only be spent on apprenticeships• Non levy payer will get 90% of the apprenticeship training cost

paid by the government and 10% will be paid by the employer• If the Apprentice is 16yrs-18yrs then 100% of the

Apprenticeship training cost is paid but employer must have less than 50 employees.

• This does not include wages.

The Apprenticeship The engagement of Apprentices

New employees (via normal recruitment processes)
