Apprenticeships


Combine working with learning and get your career off the ground with an Apprenticeship.An Apprenticeship is a real job with training. Apprentices earn and learn at the same time, gaining hands-on experience and new skills and knowledge, in the workplace and, in most cases, at College.

Key benefits of being an apprentice include:

• You earn a wage

• You train alongside experienced staff

• You achieve qualifications

• You learn job specific skills

• You boost your future job prospects

• You can progress through levels and even top up from an Apprenticeship to a degree in some sectors

Apprenticeships follow a structured programme that leads to recognised qualifications. Generally, Apprenticeships take between one and three years to complete (depending on the sector).

Apprenticeships can be taken at three levels: Intermediate (Level 2), Advanced (Level 3) and Higher (Level 4/5). The type of Apprenticeship you choose will depend on your intended career and any experience and qualifications you may already have gained.

Like all employees, apprentices receive a wage. Employers are obliged to cover an apprentice’s salary for a minimum of 30 hours per week.

Can anyone become an apprentice?Anyone over the age of 16, who has been living in England for at least three years and is not in full-time education, can become an apprentice. To be an apprentice you must be employed in your chosen industry.

If you don’t have a job you should log on to the National Apprenticeship Service website at www.apprenticeships.org.uk and search for vacancies using keywords, job role or your postcode.
