Apprenticeships

What is an Apprenticeship?

An Apprenticeship is a great opportunity to earn while you learn! You may spend one day a week with a training provider gaining an NVQ qualification and spend the rest of the week in paid employment.

Could I do an Apprenticeship?

Apprenticeships are available to young people aged between 16 and 24. The Apprenticeship scheme offers courses at three levels:

1. Level 1 (the Entry to Employment e2e scheme)
2. Level 2 (an Apprenticeship)
3. Level 3 (an Advanced Apprenticeship)
