Apprenticeships

Another way to upskill is an apprenticeship. An apprenticeship is a real job where you learn, gain experience and get paid. You’re an employee with a contract of employment and holiday leave. By the end of an apprenticeship, you'll have the right skills and knowledge needed for your chosen career. 

Apprenticeships are aimed at anyone who is over the age of 16 and not in full-time education. Each apprenticeship has a level and an equivalent education level. You can start an apprenticeship at any level. 

If you're looking for an apprenticeship and need extra support, register with us and one of our employment advisers can help.
