Apprenticeships

Apprenticeships are high quality, work-based training programmes for young people who want to develop their prospects and career.  When you decide to take up an Apprenticeship, you will: 

  • earn real wages
  • gain new qualifications & industry standard training
  • gain new knowledge and Key Skills
  • get a chance to build a career

Apprenticeships are becoming more and more popular. Last year, there were more than 255,000 young people in England training in over 150 different types of Apprenticeship.

Each Apprenticeship (NVQ Level 2) can last between 12 and 24 months depending on the occupational area, age and previous experience. 

There's a high demand for many of the Apprenticeships on offer, so be aware that there can be a lot of competition to get a place!
