Level 3 Software Development Technician
The purpose of this apprenticeship is to train Software Development Technicians to work effectively within a business environment.
The primary role of a Software Development Technician is to work as part of a software development team, to build simple software components (whether web, mobile or desktop applications) to be used by other members of the team as part of larger software development projects. They interpret simple design requirements for discrete components of the project under supervision. The approach will typically include implementing code, which other team members have developed, to produce the required component. The Software Development Technician is also involved in testing that the specific component meets its intended functionality.
