An apprenticeship is a paid job where the employee learns and gains valuable experiences.

Alongside on-the-job training, apprentices spend at least 20% of their working hours completing classroom-based learning with a college, university or training provider which leads to a nationally recognised qualification.

An apprenticeship includes:

• paid employment with holiday leave
• hands-on-experience in a sector/role of interest
• at least 20% off-the-job training
• formal assessment which leads to a nationally recognised qualification
