City and Guilds learners share a happy moment

Studying an Apprenticeship brings together the best of education and employment, allowing you build your career, learning while you earn, gaining recognised qualifications which prove to employers you can do the job.

Whilst gaining experience and proving you can do the job with an employer, you may also spend time with a college or training provider working towards Key Skills qualifications and in some cases a knowledge-based qualification.

Apprenticeship Extra provides employers and apprentices with funded work-based training in a range of more than 170 exciting career roles. , gen
