04
Start your apprenticeship
Once you’ve secured a job, you will usually spend four days a week ‘on the job’ in your employer’s office (and/or remotely if they are a remote or hybrid-working company). On top of this, you will receive regular apprenticeship training as you work towards your qualification:
​
-
Content Creator: You will attend fortnightly workshops at The Juice Academy in Manchester (9:30am to 4pm) – option to attend remotely.
-
PR & Comms: You will attend monthly workshops at Smoking Gun’s office in Manchester (9:30am to 4pm) - option to attend remotely.
-
Fundraiser: You will complete most of your training sessions remotely, with a two optional in-person sessions in The Juice Academy in Manchester.
​
Once you’ve completed all your training, the final three-month period of the programmes is an ‘assessment period’, during which you will complete various projects and assessments that count towards your end-point assessment. When you’re ‘at work’, you’ll be working as part of your employer’s team, but you’ll also be set tasks to complete during a ‘self-study’ day in between the sessions to show that you’re learning and to provide evidence for your assessors.
