Level 3 Optical Assistant Apprenticeship
Training 2000
Description
Do you have customer facing staff who don’t hold an optical industry qualification, and would you like to retain, retrain and motivate them for little to no cost? Or, are you looking to hire an Optical Assistant to support you in your busy practice, and are you looking at hiring in the most cost effective way?
Price
The Apprenticeship is ideal for members of staff who are customer-facing and would benefit from an industry recognised qualification to ensure they are effective within their role and working in line with local and national Optical standards. The Apprenticeship is aimed at those who are new to an Optical Assistant based role, or for any existing member of staff wishing to be upskilled within the sector.
As part of our service, we support on recruiting to these positions free of charge. (if required)
The course is taught fully online over half a day per week for 18 months, meaning that no matter where you are in England we can support you, your practice and your staff.
Funding your Apprenticeship
The Optical Assistant Apprenticeship is £8,000 for Levy paying employers. If you don’t pay the Apprenticeship Levy, it is 95% funded by the Government, so it will cost £400 +VAT.
