Hygiene Sue will create a Google Drive folder for you, containing modules with your coursework and textbooks. The modules will be divided into workbooks and textbooks.
The workbooks will contain activities and exercises that you will need to complete, while the textbooks will provide more in-depth information on the topics covered. At the start of your Apprenticeship, you will be allocated an assessor who will teach and assess you every two weeks, both virtually and on site.
