What is an Apprenticeship?
An apprenticeship is a way for young people and adult learners alike to earn while they learn in employment, while gaining a vocational qualification and a real future.

An apprenticeship is a programme of learning and qualifications, completed in the workplace that provides employees with the skills, knowledge, confidence and competencies they need to progress in their chosen career or industry.
We believe the key to apprenticeships is providing high quality training that will benefit both apprentices and employers in the workplace.
