Apprenticeships
Our Apprenticeship programmes are ideal for those just starting out in their career, adults looking to change careers, and also for those already within a Digital role, who are looking to expand their knowledge and professional development.
Apprenticeships provide individuals with an opportunity to train in a particular industry and to gain a National Recognised Qualification, whilst receiving a salary as an employee of a company.
In our latest Ofsted inspection our Apprenticeship provision was rated Outstanding, with Ofsted inspectors stating that, “Apprentices develop an extensive range of skills and knowledge and many extend and deepen specialist skills beyond the requirements of their qualifications.”
You need to be employed to study an Apprenticeship, and so if you have not already found an employer, we work with a huge range of employers and can offer a free service that helps you to find the right company for you.
