Purpose of this framework Summary of the purpose of the framework Reliable transport keeps people, goods, services and the economy running smoothly. The industry relies on a steady flow of new entrants and apprentices help to meet this need. Apprentices at Level 2 (Service Technician) and Level 3 (Diagnostic Technician) will learn how to diagnose, test and repair a range of vehicles. Those at Level 4 (Master/Senior Technician or Workshop Controller) will learn how to become effective first time managers in a maintenance and repair workshop. Looking at the profile of the Automotive Retail Industry in England: the Automotive Retail Sector employs over half a million people in England, which is equates to 1.7% of the workforce in England and is a major contributor to the economy, generating 129 billion of turnover in England in 2008; maintenance and repair businesses account for 55% of employment in the Automotive Retail Sector in England and 88% of those businesses are micro employers, employing less than 10 people; the majority of the workforce is aged between 25-44 and is predominantly white male, however this Apprenticeship framework will help to encourage applications from a more diverse range of people; skilled trade occupations make up a significantly larger than average share of the workforce at 38%, compared with 10% of other industries in England and this Apprenticeship framework opens up the skilled trades route at Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4; more technicians at Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4 in maintenance and repair are needed to keep up with the technology used to diagnose, test and repair a range of vehicles including cars, vans, lorries, lift trucks and motorcycles; to respond to changing consumer demand for more efficient, economic and safer vehicles; to replace those who retire or leave; and to train as managers of the future. managers and leaders form the second biggest occupational group of the workforce at 19%, however only 15% of managers and leaders in the Automotive Retail Sector are qualified at Level 4 or above, so with the introduction of the new Level 4 pathway in this Apprenticeship framework it will help contribute towards meeting the higher level skills needs of the industry. Traditionally Apprenticeships in the Automotive Retail Sector have been at Level 2 and Level 3. However, based on employer demand, a Level 4 Apprenticeship is now available in Vehicle Maintenance and Repair. This new Level 4 Apprenticeship provides a clear progression pathway for those Level 2 and Level 3 technicians who wish to progress into first line management whilst retaining their involvement with the technical aspects of maintenance and repair.

The Vehicle Maintenance and Repair Apprenticeship framework is in the top twenty of all Apprenticeship frameworks in England with eight thousand nine hundred Level 2 and Level 3 apprentices starting training in 2008/2009. This newly revised Apprenticeship framework builds upon the success of its predecessor, by including updated qualifications to meet both the changing skills needs of employers and the new Specification of Apprenticeship Standards for England (SASE). This Apprenticeship framework will help to attract new people into the industry and tap into the talents of under-represented groups, as over the next 10 years 213,000 people will be required to replace those who retire from or leave the Automotive Retail Sector in England. Vehicle Maintenance and Repair apprentices at Level 2 in a Service Technican role and at Level 3 in a Diagnostic Technician role will work on a range of vehicles including light vehicles, heavy vehicles, motorcycles and lift trucks. Apprentices at Level 4 in a Master/Senior Technician or Workshop Controller role will oversee and have a hand in the work carried out by Service and Diagnostic Technicians. This framework will also contribute to meeting the Skills for Sustainable Growth strategy for England by: Providing apprentices with the intermediate technical skills that are increasingly important as jobs become more highly skilled and technological change accelerates. Supporting the development of leadership and management skills in small and medium sized enterprises as a key to allowing these companies to grow and make full use of their people; Creating a strong, flexible pathway towards professional careers that are understood and recognised by employers and d by prospective learners. incorporating literacy, numeracy and digital life skills to improve employability; increasing apprentice s social mobility and confidence through achievement of the six Personal Learning and Thinking Skills. Aims and objectives of this framework (England) The aim of this framework is to attract new people into Vehicle Maintenance and Repair from a wide range of backgrounds to replace those who leave or retire and to upskill the existing workforce in England. Objectives of this framework are to: 1. 2. contribute to increasing the number of existing staff qualified at Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4 attract more applicants from women and other under-represented groups into Vehicle Maintenance and Repair posts at Levels 2, Level 3 and Level 4;

3. 4. 5. 6. develop problem solving, communication, team working, literacy, numeracy and ICT skills which are a priority for the Automotive Retail Industry; provide micro businesses, which account for around 85% of businesses in the Automotive Retail Sector, with access to a quality training programme to help their businesses grow; provide opportunities for career progression within Vehicle Maintenance and Repair, and into the wider Automotive Retail Industry; provide a pathway to foundation degree and to undergraduate programmes for those who choose to do so. Entry conditions for this framework This framework in Vehicle Maintenance and Repair would suit someone who is interested in the technical aspects of motor vehicles, who likes practical work, is good with their hands, enjoys face to face contact with customers and enjoys identifying and fixing mechanical problems. Employers are looking to attract applicants who have a keen interest in working in the Automotive Retail Industry in Vehicle Maintenance and Repair jobs and who have basic literacy and numeracy skills on which this Apprenticeship will build. Applicants to this Apprenticeship, starting at Level 2, will be a mix of age and experience. As a guide, applicants may come from a range of routes including: work or work experience; training and/or experience which could include a portfolio showing what they have done; foundation learning at level 1; any of the Key Skills or Functional Skills; Young Apprenticeship in the Automotive Retail Industry; any of the (14-19) Diplomas including the Engineering Diploma; a range of vocational or academic qualification(s). Initial Assessment Training providers and employers will identify the apprentice's learning and support needs and reflect these in the individual learning plan, recognising prior qualifications and experience.
