Skill Overview

The Data Technician Apprenticeship will help you recruit entry-level data specialists and upskill existing employees. This will help your business to enhance analytic capabilities that provide meaningful value through better reports, dashboards and easy-to-understand visualisations using a range of tools. The ability to make decisions using data is a necessity and key advantage for any business, but it can only help firms if they have the resources to extract meaningful conclusions. Many organisations are unable to capitalise on the data within their business due to a shortage of experts with the relevant core data skills. BPP, in partnership with Grant Thornton, is excited to offer a new Data Technician Apprenticeship. This partnership brings together BPP's high quality apprenticeship approach with Grant Thornton's extensive real world insight and expertise, creating a programme with practical application from the outset. The Data Technician Apprenticeship will help your business to hire entry-level data specialists or upskill existing employees who are working with data. If you have data within your organisation then you can transform that data into knowledge which will enable you to identify patterns, make better decisions, predict trends and increase business competitiveness.

Learning Objectives

Your employees will gain an understanding of what data analytics is, its importance, and where relevant industry trends appear to be going. They will learn about the journey of a data analyst, including the skills, tasks and processes required to illustrate a narrative that's driven by data. This includes how to use a suite of Power BI tools and services to generate reports that help towards crucial business decisions.

Funding Option

Funding Eligibility

For apprentices aged 16-21 the training costs are fully funded by the government. For apprentices aged over 21, there is a 5% co-investment which would be paid by the employer. Alternatively, the training costs can be covered by utilising the Apprenticeship Levy Fund.
