Some of the employers that offer apprenticeships


How do I get one? Every Apprenticeship requires three key players:


• The Apprentice – who is employed to work and study


• Their employer – who is responsible for employing the Apprentice and deciding the training route


• Their training provider – who is responsible for helping deliver the qualifications and to maintain quality (all Apprenticeship training providers are inspected by OfSTED).


If you want to be an Apprentice, you therefore have two potential routes to finding an Apprenticeship: you can either approach employers who offer jobs in the career you are interested in or you can talk to training providers who deliver the qualifications you want. In reality, of course, you should probably do both! About 90% of all the 28,000 Apprenticeship vacancies advertised in England each year appear on the Find An Apprenticeship website so that is a great place to start: www.gov.uk/apply- apprenticeship This website is free to use and you don’t have to create a login to browse. The big difference between applying for an Apprenticeship and applying for a place at college or uni is that Apprenticeship vacancies are posted at any time during the year, as an employer chooses to recruit, so don’t just expect to find the right vacancy for you in the summer term.
