A progress review meeting (often called a tripartite meeting) is an opportunity to discuss the progress of the apprentice against their training plan. This is a three-way meeting between the apprentice, the apprentice's employer and the Queen Mary mentor/Senior Tutor. Meetings should take place at least twice each semester.
The purpose of these meetings is to ensure that the apprentice is making good progress against the Knowledge, Skills and Behaviours (KSBs) listed in the standard. These meetings play a major role in the development and support of the apprentice and also provide a vital opportunity for giving and receiving feedback.
All three participants should review academic progress being made in the programme and vocational progress in the workplace against the training plan. They should also review actions agreed in previous meetings and review evidence captured in the apprentice’s portfolio (where applicable).
Meetings provide an opportunity to identify areas for development against the apprenticeship standard, recognise achievements, and identify any issues or concerns that may impact on the success of the apprenticeship.
