BUSINESS SKILLS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE APPRENTICESHIP

Regulatory Compliance Officer Level 4

Organisations must act in line with relevant regulations and legislation, whilst also ensuring they are not having a negative effect on the environment, society, their customers, and their employees.

It is well recognised that the regulatory climate is a key contributor to the creation of a positive and supportive business environment whilst also assuring public and environmental protection. This increases the need for reliable, trustworthy, and skilled regulatory compliance professionals.

The Regulatory Compliance Officer Level 4 apprenticeship develops learners’ knowledge and skills to enforce the law working for a regulatory body. It also equips learners working in the private sector to best assure their organisation is compliant with legal requirements such as Health and Safety at Work and Data Protection. Learners will be able to confidently carry out inspections, investigate complaints and advise on business compliance.

Who is this programme for?

Regulatory Officers working in Local Government and Central Government to enforce the law
Compliance Officers in the private sector in to help assure the relevant laws, regulations and business standards are being adhered to

Testimonials

What our experts and learners have to say

Having worked in the industry of Regulatory Compliance for over 30 years, aspects of my role involved some delivery of training, so it felt natural to transition into training new Regulatory Compliance Officers. It is rewarding to see their confidence grow during the procession of the apprenticeship and within their role. I have been working with Babington for over two years, I can honestly say that I enjoy every day

Sandra Tetley

Skills Coach

The programme has helped me develop the necessary skills and knowledge to enable me to successfully apply for a new role in compliance. When I started out on my RCO apprenticeship I was in an administrative role with the plan being that I would be able to carry out simple follow up checks on compliance on behalf of the compliance officers. The apprenticeship made me realise that I wanted to work towards becoming a compliance officer and gave me the necessary skills to achieve this... Before I began the apprenticeship I had not considered working towards this position however the apprenticeship has allowed me to identify my existing skills and develop new skills.
