The UK government has just published guidance to training providers and employers regarding the continuation of apprenticeships during the coronavirus epidemic.

The guidance includes a suggestion that e-learning could ensure the continuation of apprentices’ studies and that end point assessment could take place remotely.

PTT has a wealth of experience of supporting digital apprenticeships with our e-learning courses, online tutor support and assessment. We will continue to do so for our existing clients and stand ready to assist those organisations who need to make alternative arrangements for their apprentices.

We at PTT, along with most others, have been following the development of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.

As an online training organisation, PTT staff are able to work from home as necessary and there will be no disruption to our activities during the pandemic.

If necessary, this content can be quickly adapted and immediately deployed to your employees.

To help organisations with the transition to an increased amount of distance learning and online training, we are offering any organisation affected a 15% discount on our standard pricing until 31^st May 2020.

If you would like to discuss how PTT can assist your organisation, please contact us.

There are a number of advantages to distance learning, one of them being reducing the need to travel to external training centres.

Sometimes, circumstances dictate that staff are unable to travel to external training centres or gather in a single location at the same time. Online training, is one way of ensuring staff development takes place without unnecessary or unwanted travel.

PTT has a wide range of online courses covering telecommunications, networking and ICT. These courses are self-paced and can be studied by trainees in any location where they have access to a computer and an internet connection. Study programmes such as our Level 3 Award in Principles of Telecommunications and Level 3 Certificate in Unified Communications come with additional features such as online tutor support which helps support the trainee as they progress.

PTT has over 25 years of experience in helping communications organisations, large and small, create innovative online and blended training and development programmes for their staff. For more information on how we can help you, please contact us.
