Logistics concerns the planning, scheduling and movement of goods. Without effective logistics the entire economy would grind to a halt, so it’s vital to business. As an Apprentice, you could work for a haulage or courier company, gaining a broad overview of how systems work by carrying out routine tasks within a traffic office, such as managing timetables, planning routes, scheduling loads, and assigning drivers to vehicles. Alternatively you could learn to drive Large Goods Vehicles (LGV), operate a fork lift truck, or learn how to manage inventory, run a warehouse and how understand how goods are stored. The Apprenticeship/Foundation Modern Apprenticeship Framework for Warehousing and Storage is specifically targeted at those involved in the movement and storage of goods within the operation. It requires a good level of occupational competence and is aimed at the practitioner level. You will be assessed by continuous assessment of practical, written and oral work the production of a portfolio of work, online testing, and assessment in the workplace.
