About this course
This programme is designed for employees who work in diverse settings where specialised cleaning techniques are necessary for maintaining safety and hygiene.
It is suitable for cleaning operatives working in places like hospitals and care homes where high levels of cleanliness are required. It is also aimed at commercial cleaning operatives who maintain hygienic environments in high-traffic areas such as offices, shopping centres, public transport hubs and public spaces.
Apprentices on this programme will learn the very latest standard operating procedures (SOPs) and legal requirements to provide safe and hygienic environments for service users, ensuring robust cleaning and disinfection standards set by clients are met.
Functional Skills: If an apprentice is aged 16-18 and has not previously achieved the required level of English and maths, they will need to complete Functional Skills as part of their apprenticeship programme.
While Functional Skills are no longer mandatory for adult apprentices (19+), literacy and numeracy skills remain essential for success.
For those without prior English and Maths qualifications, we recommend entry level 3 in maths and entry level 3 in English to support career growth and workplace efficiency.
Our tailored support ensures these skills are seamlessly integrated into the apprenticeship journey, helping every apprentice develop these vital skills.
