Work Based Learning 2 (A)

The work-based learning (WBL) module is an integral component of the Civil Engineering Apprenticeship Programmes. The module is designed to provide
apprentices with the opportunity to demonstrate their ability to transfer and apply classroom learning to the workplace. The integration of the academic
theories with the professional work setting enables the apprentice to gain a wider breadth of application for the academic theories and positions covered
in the classroom setting.

Individual experiences in the workplace environment will vary from apprentice to apprentice . The workplace learning element of the programme is
designed in a flexible manner to ensure that each apprentice is given the opportunity to apply the knowledge, skills and competencies gained in the
academic modules into a real-life workplace context.
