Foundation Apprenticeships are a work-based learning opportunity for senior-phase pupils.

Lasting one or two years, pupils spend time out of college (such as NESCOL) with a local employer.

Modern Apprenticeships allow people to study qualifications whilst working as a paid employee.

These apprenticeships typically last between one and four years. There are over 100 types available and depend on the type of job and level of qualification.

Graduate Apprenticeships allow people to study for their degree alongside completing paid work.

These typically last from two to five years. There are only 13 available and specialise in specific areas such as Accountancy or Data Science.
