What is an apprenticeship?

An apprenticeship is a form of work-based learning – combining skills training and practical experience whilst working with a local employer. 

An apprenticeship is an opportunity for you to study and earn a wage at the same time! 

You’ll get vital work experience on the direct path to your dream career. You’ll get the qualifications that employers are looking for alongside the technical skills you’ll need to thrive in the workplace.
