Apprenticeships Information
What is an apprenticeship?
Experience the job you're training in and get paid!
Where will your apprenticeship pathway take you?
Alongside on-the-job training, apprentices complete off-the-job training, which equates to six hours a week and can be delivered flexibly. For example this will be through completing classroom-based learning with a college, university, or training provider which leads to a recognised qualification.
We offer a wide range of apprenticeships within the education sector
