Retail Apprenticeship - Level 2
Booking Enquiry Duration: 12 MonthsType: Level 2 Apprenticeship
Retail is one of the fastest growing sectors and covers a vast range of businesses, from market stalls and independent shops, to national chains and superstores. As a Retail Apprentice you could be assisting customers on the sales floor of a high street store and handling their purchases or working as an expert in a specialist department, dealing
with specific enquiries.
You may be in a creative role such as visual merchandising, helping to create window and in-store displays to drive sales or you may choose to work behind the scenes on stock handling, ensuring products are received in the correct quantities and appropriately stored. You could develop skills in sales, and marketing, essential for any business, or you could learn technical or business skills such as hairdressing or beauty. From dealing with stock deliveries to organising displays, the skills gained from the Retail Apprenticeship are transferable to all retail companies. With a young workforce, the UK's retail sector is vibrant and offers many opportunities for early career progression.
Programme Delivery
Your Tutor is responsible for delivering the knowledge and understanding and undertaking the work based assessments required to facilitate successful delivery of the Apprenticeship. Visits take place in the workplace on a regular basis (e.g. monthly). Skills evidence varies and can be flexible depending on each individual's circumstances. This
may include voice recordings, projects, photographs and observation reports from the Tutor.
Duration
The programme is delivered during normal working hours, making it a real opportunity to learn while you earn. Timescales for completion depend on the individual, but on average the qualification takes between 9 to 12 months.
