Apprenticeships are an exciting option for anyone wanting to gain experience, upskill or change career because they offer the chance to earn a wage whilst they work and study. Apprentices can get qualifications at a variety of levels and avoid student debt.
More detailed information on the different levels and qualifications of apprenticeships is available here.

An apprenticeship includes:
- paid employment with holiday leave
- hands-on-experience in a sector/role of interest
