Operating department practice is an exciting, fast-changing field with opportunities to work across different surgical and anaesthesia specialities. The BSc (Hons) Operating Department Practice (Degree Apprenticeship) programme is designed to meet the Operating Department Practitioner (Integrated Degree) Level 6 Apprenticeship Standard (ST0582). This highly practical degree apprenticeship aims to develop clinical knowledge, skills and behaviours for working in operating theatres and wider perioperative settings.

After graduation, and once your apprentice has registered as an Operating Department Practitioner (ODP) with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), they will be able to take responsibility for a patient's welfare and personalise their care. They will be qualified to work as part of a multidisciplinary team in any of the three phases of perioperative care 鈥� anaesthesia, surgery or recovery 鈥� or in a role that combines all these areas.

What can I do with this qualification?

The course is approved by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).

On successful completion of the programme, your apprentices may apply to the HCPC to join the register for Operating Department Practitioners (ODPs).

Whilst studying this course, apprentices are not currently required to register as a member with the HCPC. However, they must follow the HCPC's standards of proficiency and standards of conduct, performance and ethics. Apprentices will be required to sign a declaration of ongoing fitness to practise at regular intervals during their studies.

After qualifying as an ODP, your apprentices will need to be committed to learning and always keep their skills and knowledge up-to-date. To maintain their registration to practice with the HCPC, they will need to continue to meet the HCPC's standards of proficiency, and conduct, performance and ethics standards.

Apprentices will not be expected to pay tuition fees towards this programme. If your organisation has a wage bill of more than 拢3 million per annum, then it may be able to fund this apprenticeship through its Apprenticeship Levy contributions. If your organisation does not pay the levy, it will be eligible for government support to fund apprenticeships. This support, called co-investment, covers 95% of the apprenticeship's tuition fees, with your organisation funding the remaining 5% of the fees.

Home/EU Fees

Apprentices will need to be employed by your organisation for a minimum of 30 hours per week. Your organisation will also need to commit to sponsoring apprentices to complete this qualification.

For further information on how your organisation can access funds to support apprentices, please e-mail apprentices@bolton.ac.uk.

Operating department practice is a multi-faceted discipline, so we use a wide range of teaching and learning methods, including online, where appropriate. These are designed to fully engage apprentices, helping them develop the skills, knowledge, self-awareness, and behaviours essential for success in this field. Learning focuses on your workplace environment 鈥� your apprentices will spend the majority of their normal working week in practice gaining on-the-job knowledge and experience. They will also be required to devote a minimum of six hours of their time per week to university learning and independent study (classified as off-the-job training).

As well as attending timetabled lectures, tutorials, discussions, demonstrations and computer-aided learning sessions, apprentices will also be expected to allocate significant time to independent and self-directed studies. For example, building a portfolio of evidence, background reading, revisiting practical work, preparing for seminars, working on assignments and revising for exams will support their timetabled learning and develop good habits for lifelong learning. Our friendly and supportive tutors will be here to guide them and will gladly help them devise an independent study regime focused on their individual development needs. Learning will also be supported by the University's virtual learning environment, Moodle.

Your organisation will need to provide each apprentice with a workplace supervisor to support their development. They will also benefit from regular visits from a university tutor. The workplace supervisor, university tutor and apprentice will work together to create an individual learning plan.

For the degree element of this programme, we assess each apprentice's performance through a strategic blend of assignments, practical assessments, projects, oral presentations (including viva voce) and formal examinations. Some assessments contribute to their final module marks, while others are designed to help them identify their strengths and weaknesses, and where they need to seek extra support from course tutors.

In addition to the assessments associated with the degree programme, apprentices will undertake the end point assessment (EPA), at the end of the apprenticeship period. Apprentices are also required to develop learning logs/professional development plans and build up a skills portfolio in preparation for the EPA.
