Workforce plans for 22 apprenitces are reliant on the provision of the following apprenitceships: Data Analyst (Level 4) x 2; Business Analyst (Level 4) x 12; Project Management (Level 6) x 8. For each apprenticeship standard it will be a single cohort intake, a one-off contract to enrol by May 2024 and continue with the commitment to deliver the full programme(s) until End Point Assessment is completed.
