Over the past 10 months GTA England has been pleased to chair a group of Engineering sector employers and specialists to develop a Level 3 Engineering and Manufacturing Support Technician Apprenticeship Standard. This apprenticeship is to replace the current pathway 13 – Technical Support Technician in the Engineering Technician Standard (ST0457). Following approval of the occupational proposal by the Institute for Apprenticeships & Technical Education in August 2023, we would like to invite you to comment on the Level 3 Engineering and Manufacturing Support Technician Standard before it is finalised for submission for Government approval. A copy of the standard is attached to this post which defines a series of duties commonly undertaken in the sector, along with the knowledge, skills and behaviours associated with each duty. Please use the link below to access the short survey to provide your views on the standard, including any suggestions for changes which you would wish to see to make the standard useful to your business. Responses will be treated in confidence. Please complete the survey before the close of business on 27 October 2023 SURVEY LINK: h ttps://forms.microsoft.com/e/jKK2Uyrkd4 Please click here to view the ST1395 E&M Support Technician Standard
