If you do need to report an absence during this period and are unable to take part in any online tutorials/alternative delivery, you should continue to log any short term absences on your first day of absence in the way you normally would with your Faculty. This can be done by logging a Helpdesk call through e:Vision or by contacting your Faculty Student Services.
You can complete surveys via e:Vision or the MyWLV app. Once you’re logged in, look for ‘Online Surveys’. Please note your responses will remain entirely confidential – no data which personally identifies you will be available to the course team.
The University will be active on social media to help promote apprenticeships throughout the week. Please join us and use the hashtags #BuildTheFuture and #NAW2021 in your posts and tag accounts on your social media accounts as follows:
Apprentice Update: Support, Apprentice Survey and National Apprenticeship Week
04/02/2021
Please be aware that this information was shared with students by email and correct at the time of sending. For the latest Covid-19 guidance, please visit our coronavirus webpages: www.wlv.ac.uk/coronavirus. If you are a student who has a query or needs support, please log a helpcall with ASK@WLV in e:Vision (www.wlv.ac.uk/evision).
We know that these have been exceptional times for Apprentices, and this continues to be a highly unusual and challenging start to the year for everyone.
The University of Wolverhampton is committed to supporting our Apprentices in a number of ways during this latest lockdown. We hope that this update will provide you with the information and resources you need - whether you've just joined us or whether you're continuing your learning.
Please refer to the guidance sent out to all students in January following the Government's announcement of the introduction of a further lockdown.
If you do have any queries relating to your Apprenticeship, your first point of contact should be your Personal Tutor or Skills Coach. All Skills Coaches are continuing with their reviews during this period and are there to support and help. If your Skills Coach hasn’t been in touch or you need to make contact, then please contact a member of your Faculty Student Services team or log a Helpdesk call on e:Vision.

Apprentice 2021 Survey
The Apprentice 2021 Survey was launched on 22 January 2021 and we are keen to hear your views and opinions on your Apprenticeship experience.
The survey should have been sent to you via Canvas and the questions are relevant to all Apprentices across all Apprenticeship courses. This survey will capture your feedback as well as ideas on how we can make improvements so please get involved and have your say! The survey focuses on training, support and organisation as well as satisfaction and wellbeing.
National Apprenticeship Week - 8 - 14 February 2021
This is a really important week in the Apprenticeship calendar nationally and the University is really proud to be spending the week celebrating and showcasing the impact Apprenticeships and Apprentices have on communities, local businesses and regional economies.
Throughout this celebration week we will be shining the spotlight on some of our employers who are committed to upskilling their workforce and some of our Apprentices who, despite the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, are continuing to learn or who have already graduated. As part of the University of Wolverhampton Apprentice community, we would love it if you would become involved and thank you to those who are taking part and have agreed to be case studies.
