Design the off-the-job weeks a small employer can host
Online or on campus

A programme a York employer could host: skills, the workplace weeks, and the review. Not an awarding-body status. The project is a programme outline. MSc Apprenticeship Programme Design is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 18 months, and the credit total is 36. Students move from Skills through Skills; Weeks; Off the job; Review; Employer ask; Outline, and finish on Outline. Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students apply the method of the subject to a defined problem and defend the result. Reading is a core text, a case or dataset, and a critique. The artefact a marker expects is a submission that shows the method, the evidence, and the limit of the claim. The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Write the skills Plan workplace weeks Design a review Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass. The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
The credit total on this page is the sum of the courses in the curriculum. Assessment is the work named on each course.

| APP501 | Skills Skills (APP501) is a 6-credit course on MSc Apprenticeship Programme Design, with 60 notional learning hours. By the end, students can apply the method of the subject to a defined problem and defend the result, using Skills as the working context rather than a generic management example. The course is taught in three movements. First, students establish the terms and the decision the course is about. Second, they apply the method to a case, dataset, text, or design and compare it with a weaker alternative. Third, they revise the work after feedback and state what the conclusion cannot support. Preparation uses a core text, a case or dataset, and a critique. Seminar time is for the decision, not for reading the materials aloud. Assessment is a submission that shows the method, the evidence, and the limit of the claim. A pass requires a clear method, evidence a marker can check, and an explicit limit. Credit is not awarded for summary alone.
