Type of training provider

There are four types of training provider:

A National Provider is a training provider that is able to offer apprenticeship training in any location across England. Some national providers might also offer training in the devolved nations, i.e. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

An FE college is a state-funded provider that can offer a broad range of training options in a particular location to a range of employers.

A Specialist Provider is a training provider that is not state-funded and tends to offer training in specialist sectors or locations.

Universities offer training for Degree Apprenticeships or Higher Apprenticeships, sometimes running specialist courses for apprentices on a particular standard.

Derwent Training Association exists for the sole purpose of delivering engineering training. Initially founded in 1988 by employers, it has fulfilled that objective for over 30 years.

We specialise in Engineering and Manufacturing apprenticeships and deliver apprenticeships in Mechatronics Maintenance, Machinist, Technical Support Technician & Fabrication & Welding which are delivered over 48 months. Our facilities have been tailored to meet the needs of the businesses.

Our mission is to prove first class training for the benefit of our employers and their apprentices.

We are accredited by IET & IMechE, EAL, C&G & Pearson.

The School Leaver Awards

The School Leaver Awards celebrate the top employers and training providers for school and college leavers on apprenticeship programmes.

Apprentices complete feedback surveys, rating each element of their training with a score out of 100. There are four questions asked about training providers:

  • How would you rate the teaching provided by your training provider?
  • How satisfied are you with the quality of assessment and feedback provided by your training provider?
  • How would you rate your overall learning experience, including the facilities, resources and classroom environment?
  • How satisfied are you with the support you have been given by your training provider, outside of your training, i.e. personal development and welfare?

The score is the mean average of all the responses for that specific training provider. The average is the mean average score of all training providers. The position is where the training provider ranks compared with other training providers who took part.
