1. Withdrawal of frameworks by Issuing Authority

Information

The Issuing Authority, National Skills Academy for Food and Drink, have announced that they are withdrawing several pathways from the food and drink apprenticeship level 2 and 3. These pathways will be closed to new starts from 30 April 2018. You can find information on which pathways are being withdrawn and which will continue to be available on their website.

Any apprentices starting on the food and drink framework before the withdrawal date will be able to continue until completion and successful apprentices will then be able to claim their certificate using the current system.
