Where can I find an apprenticeship?<br />
The National Apprenticeship Service is aimed at people looking for information and opportunities, so visit<br />
the website to find out more information and to search and apply for apprenticeship vacancies:<br />
www.appreticeships.org.uk. You will complete a CV which will enhance your application.<br />
All students who wish to access an apprenticeship must also apply to college or 6th form. To ensure that<br />
you have a guaranteed progression route in place. College and 6th forms applications are completed<br />
(generally) by the end of January whilst apprenticeships are not usually advertised until later in the year.<br />
Traineeships<br />
Traineeships are a new programme for young people who want to work, but who need extra help to gain<br />
a apprenticeship or job. Traineeships provide an opportunity to develop the skills and workplace<br />
experience that employers require. Traineeships are available for 16 – 23 year olds (up to 25 for young<br />
people with learning disabilities). Traineeships fit within broader study programmes for 16-19 year-olds.<br />
