There are many different apprenticeships available across a wide range of industries, and for a wide variety of job roles. As a paid employee, each apprentice works alongside their studies. There are no student fees – your training costs are funded by the government and your employer.
It’s an ideal option if you have a clear idea of the career path you want to follow, providing you with practical, on-the-job training, and classroom-based instruction.
When to apply for an apprenticeship?
Vacancies will come up throughout the year - each with a specific deadline and start date.
Don't wait until the deadline as some companies will close their recruitment when they have a sufficient number of suitable candidates.
Most apprenticeships will be advertised from January onwards so you will need to keep an eye out on both the Gov and the UCAS website.
