An apprenticeship is a real job with training. So you can earn while you learn, obtain recognised qualifications and job-specific skills as you go.
You can apply if you:
- live in England
- are over 16 and not in full time education
Apprenticeships take between one and four years to complete. They cover 1,500 job roles in a wide range of industries such as social care, engineering, veterinary nursing and accountancy.
