The Learning and Development Practitioner Level 3 apprenticeship equips learners with the knowledge, skills and behaviours required to support learning and development activities that enhance individual performance and organisational capability.
Learners explore key aspects of the learning cycle, including identifying development needs, planning learning interventions, facilitating engaging learning experiences and evaluating the impact of training activities. The programme emphasises practical application, enabling learners to apply their learning directly within the workplace. Through structured projects and workplace activities, learners build confidence in supporting learners, adapting delivery methods, using learning technologies and promoting a positive culture of continuous development.
Delivery combines practical work-based learning with structured instruction, ensuring learners develop both a strong understanding of learning and development principles and the ability to apply them effectively in real-world settings. Reflective practice and guided coaching reinforce professional judgement, communication skills and a commitment to continuous improvement. By completion, learners can confidently contribute to the design, delivery and evaluation of learning solutions that support both individual growth and organisational objectives. The qualification is well suited to those beginning a career in learning and development, as well as existing employees seeking formal recognition and structured professional development within people-focused roles.
