work alongside experienced staff
gain job-specific skills
get time for training and study related to your role (at least 20% of your normal working hours)
Apprenticeships take 1 to 5 years to complete depending on their level.

2 / GCSE/ Intermediate Level
3 / A level / Advanced Level
4,5,6 and 7 / Foundation degree and above / Higher Level
6 and 7 / Bachelor’s or master’s degree / Degree Level Apprenticeship
Some apprenticeships may also give you an additional qualification, such as a diploma.
