Accelerated Apprenticeship

Created

Sorry but I am confused, but what is an accelerated apprenticeship? Does it mean we can reduce an Apprenticeship to less than 12 months, for example if a learner has RPL? or is it only for longer programmes reduced in time?

Accelerated apprenticeship
An accelerated apprenticeship is where the apprentice’s planned duration is shorter (by at least 3 months) than the typical duration of the standard, based on prior learning. Minimum requirements of an apprenticeship must still be met, including the 12-month minimum duration and minimum volume of off-the-job training.
