Have you thought about enrolling your existing staff on an apprenticeship during this crisis?
Many existing staff members that are working from home or furloughed, would benefit from undertaking an apprenticeship and now could be the right time to start them on their journey. We’ve adapted the curriculum to bring forward much of the underpinning knowledge and theory, alongside the English and maths, so that their time away from work is utilised for Off The Job Training and when they return to the workplace they can use what they have learnt to the benefit of the business. Furthermore, there will be significantly less OtJT to undertake in the remainder of their apprenticeship during working hours.

TheLightBulb is committed to supporting all our learners and apprenticeships to continue learning throughout this time of social isolation, remote working, self-isolating and company “lock downs”. The safety of our staff, learners and their employers is paramount to TheLightBulb and we will work with everyone to minimise risks.

The office will be manned on specific days whenever possible by a skeleton staff so the best communication method is email either to your usual contact or [email protected]
Although we may not be able to visit your workplace, we do not want anyone to get behind. We will work with employers and learners to ensure minimum disruption to learning by providing additional work that can be completed outside of the workplace, utilising remote working practices for meetings and where relevant hosting webinars. Apprentices can use the time productively to increase their 20% Off The Job hours in readiness for a return to normal working practices in the coming months.
If you are due to sit your End Point Assessment then please carry on with your preparations as we will be working with the Awarding Organisations to ensure continuity wherever possible, especially as many of the assessments are carried out on line.

As this situation evolves, TheLightBulb will ensure all our customers and learners are made aware of any changes regarding cancellation of training sessions or changes to remote teaching. But if you have any queries regarding this, then please do not hesitate to contact us.
We will continue to keep communication lines open to minimise stress and anxiety around apprenticeships and learning programmes.
