Logistics UK has announced that it has been approved by the Apprenticeship Provider and Assessment Register (APAR) and is now able to provide government-funded apprenticeship training.

Initially launching the Level Three ‘Transport Operations Supervisor’ programme in January 2024, further courses are expected to be announced in the coming months. 

The business group welcomes the opportunity to further support its members by offering high-quality apprenticeship training and advising on the funding options available to both levy and non-levy businesses. 

Annie Graham, Apprenticeship Manager at Logistics UK, comments: “We are thrilled to be recognised and approved as an APAR apprenticeship training provider.  Ultimately, we want to support members in driving productivity and growth and this is a great opportunity for Logistics UK to help businesses to upskill their existing employees and attract new talent into the industry.”

The Transport Operations Supervisor programme is suited to employees working in the transport and logistics sector who wish to progress to a transport manager role, with the transport manager qualification funded as part of the apprenticeship. The apprenticeship will be delivered via a combination of remote sessions, one-to-one tutor support and access to e-learning. The course is estimated to run for 12 months, followed by a 3-month EPA (end point assessment period).
