Why should students choose an Apprenticeship?

Apprenticeships combine work-based training and qualification-based learning; they are suitable for school leavers between the ages of 16-24. By doing an Apprenticeship, students will learn the skills necessary to perform their job and at the same time obtain a qualification at the end.

Most importantly Apprenticeships allow students to earn a decent wage (at least £95 per week + holidays) whilst enabling them to learn new skills that will lead to nationally recognised qualifications.

What will they get at the end of the qualification?

At the end of an Apprenticeship students will gain an NVQ which is highly recognised by all employers across the UK in their recruitment requirements.

Making training affordable

Government funding is available meaning that students don't have to pay to benefit from the training.* Because your pupil will be employed and earning a salary from the start, they will not have the burden of student debt and will still be able to progress to higher level in their career after their Apprenticeship, just as a graduate would.

Support
Our expert tutors and assessors are available to support students from finding employment to finishing assessments and exams. Not only are our tutors experts in their field but the vast majority of them are full time employees meaning that they are accessible to you outside of the classroom during the working day. You can email, telephone or even call in to get extra help, advice or just for a reassuring chat.

Government funding
If a student is between the ages of 16-24, all of our Apprenticeship programmes receive full or part government funding, making training more affordable than going to university†.
