A training plan sets out how the apprenticeship curriculum is implemented in the workplace, and how the general requirements of the curriculum would be combined with the specific requirements of the organisation offering the apprenticeship.
To ensure that apprentices fulfil all the requirements defined in the occupational standards, the apprenticeship training plan should provide a complete description of the training to be delivered and the competencies to be acquired. More specifically, the training plan should set out when and where different training sequences will be carried out and identify the individuals responsible for delivering different parts of the training. It should also specify how and when the assessment will take place.
Corresponding to the organisation training plan, TVET providers should also prepare a plan for off-the-job training that complements on-the-job training at the workplace. The combination of on- and off-the-job training guarantees that apprentices are work-ready on completion of the programme.
