Apprenticeships

What is an Apprenticeship?

Apprenticeships are an excellent way of gaining qualifications and workplace experience. As an apprentice, you can earn as you learn, and you gain practical skills from the workplace. 

The key benefits of an apprenticeship are:

• You gain valuable workplace skills and experience.
• You work in a real job for a real employer.
• You are paid a salary and have a contract of employment.
• You achieve an apprenticeship recognised by employers.
• You get support from your colleagues and training organisation.
• It’s a career pathway that helps you achieve your goals.
• Show skills, achievements and work experience on your CV.
