The Warehousing and Storage apprenticeship is offered at levels 5 and 6. It provides warehouse operatives with a qualification to demonstrate they possess the skills and knowledge required to carry out their role to a professional standard. In addition, it confirms the employee has a range of flexible skills that are backed up by a nationally recognised vocational qualification.
The Warehousing and Storage apprenticeship is great for employers and businesses looking to build a stronger, more confident workforce who are equipped with expert skills.
This apprenticeship can be government funded and is designed for candidates who do not hold a formal qualification.
This qualification is for those who currently working in or who wish to work in a warehousing and storage facility in logistics. There are a total of nine units and five core skills to be completed to pass this apprenticeship. Candidates will normally expect to complete the apprenticeship within one year.
On completion, the candidate will qualify for free forklift training as outlined below:
Candidates will receive, free of charge, either five days' forklift training in our centre or three days if they have had previous experience of operating forklifts.
Candidates will receive an RTITB certificate on completion of the qualification as well as their MA certificates. Funding is currently available for candidates aged from 16 – 24 years old.
The apprentices will be assessed through practical observations, both in the workplace and at GTG Training. The apprentices will undertake vocational training in their workplace. Assessments will be carried out on site at the candidates’ workplace and will take approximately five visits, each lasting around 1 – 1.5 hours.
