A new apprenticeship standard has been drafted for Advanced Clinical Practice, and is now out for consultation.

The level seven (masters' degree level) standard has been developed by an employer-led group of stakeholders, called a trailblazer. The trailblazer group is seeking feedback on the draft standard until 25 July 2017.

Following consultation and relevant amendments, the standard will then be submitted to the Institute for Apprenticeships to seek approval prior to drafting the apprenticeship end point assessment plan.
