As an apprentice, you will work towards a nationally recognised apprenticeship standard while earning a wage and gaining industry experience at the same time.

We can help you find the right placement
With the option to study qualifications from Level 2 through to degree level, it has become a great alternative to a full/part-time course or university. An apprenticeship comes with the added bonus that it comes with a wage and doesn’t come with the debt of a traditional degree.
Apprenticeships aren’t restrictive. You can choose to start an apprenticeship at any point in your education journey. You may choose to start an apprenticeship straight after you leave school or you may decide to study at college then progress to an apprenticeship afterwards, or vice versa.
You can also complete your A-levels at a sixth form or College and then move on to a university-level apprenticeship.
Higher Apprenticeships
Apprenticeships are designed by employers and equip apprentices with the relevant knowledge and skills to prepare them for a successful career in their chosen work area. They also gain valuable work experience and learn transferable skills that prepare them for the future.
We provide the tools for success
Bursaries and funding
Each fund has different eligibility rules depending on age, course funding, household income, receipt of means-tested benefits and personal circumstances. The criteria changes each year.
