Engineering Apprenticeships & Training
 

What is an Apprenticeship?

Apprenticeships are designed for young people who do not wish to continue in full-time education.  They do not cost you anything because they are funded by the Learning and Skills Council (LSC) and are available at two levels:

  1. Apprenticeship (Level 2)
  2. Advanced Apprenticeship (Level 3)

They allow you to work at your own speed gaining valuable experience and practical skills for the workplace.

An apprenticeship will give you the chance to do real work and earn real pay.  They are nationally recognised programmes designed by industry to equip young people with practical skills for work.

An apprenticeship will also give you the opportunity to work towards qualifications that will help you progress in your chosen career by improving your long-term prospects.
Apprenticeships
 

What will my Apprenticeship involve?

An apprenticeship is made of a framework which must be completed.  A framework consists of:
National Vocational Qualification (NVQ)
Key Skills

Technical Certificate
 

What is an NVQ?

An NVQ is a national work based qualification, which acknowledges the skills you use in the workplace.

Assessment is not by examinations but by generating evidence through the work based route to prove your competence.
 
 

What are Key Skills?

Key skills are a range of essential skills valued by employers.  The five key skills are:
Communication
Application of number
Information technology
Working with others
Improving learning and performance
 
 

What is a Technical Certificate?

A technical certificate is incorporated into an apprenticeship and provides a strong foundation to your chosen career and vital underpinning knowledge for your NVQ.
