The Institute for Apprenticeships (IfA) is the independent body with responsibility for the development and approval of apprenticeship standards.

At the time of writing, the IfA’s website shows that, of the 390 apprenticeship standards now approved for delivery, 66 are within the construction sector. A further 32 standards are in development and there are 6 proposals within that sector that have been submitted but are still awaiting approval.
