Data Technicians work in all sectors where data is generated or processed; the broad purpose of the occupation is to source, format and present data securely in a relevant way for analysis using basic methods; to communicate outcomes appropriate to the audience; analyse structured and unstructured data to support business outcomes; blend data from multiple sources as directed and apply legal and ethical principles when manipulating data.
These professionals interact with a range of stakeholders in their work life including colleagues, managers, customers and internal and external contacts. Data Technicians typically work as a member of a team and, at this level, will be responsible for collecting and processing data typically under the guidance of a senior colleague or multiple colleagues across the business/organisation.
The context in which data technicians are working will dictate how they approach their work and the tools that they use. We work closely with employers to ensure that our assessments recognise this and that our assessment materials reflect this whilst maintaining the requirement that apprentices should be competent to work as a data technician in any industry.
*this only applies to apprentices aged 16-18 at the start of their apprenticeship training. For apprentices aged 19+ at the start of their apprenticeship training, achieving L2 English and maths is not mandatory.
The assessment will typically be completed within a period up to three months once the gateway requirements have been met.

We are members of the Association of Apprentices which unlocks access to a host of free resources and peer support aimed at helping apprentices maximise their apprenticeship.
