Off-the-Job Training (OJT) is one of the key requirements for all apprenticeship standards.
Apprentices must complete 20% of their contracted hours worth
20% of contracted hours must be off the job training. Apprentices will log these hours into software, such as Onefile, to keep track of this.
See how employers and training providers should meet the 20% off-the-job training requirement for apprentices, with some best practice examples.
August 1st, 2022, rules change for off-the-job requirement. Instead of 20% of contracted hours, apprentices must now complete 6 hours a week, no matter their contracted hours. This will remove many barriers to apprentices that employers face.
This figure was chosen as it represents 20% of 30 hours, which all part-time apprentices are currently doing.
The 6 hours per week is for calculation purposes only; once calculated the programme can still be delivered flexibly
