• Ensure that all work set by our apprenticeship provider is completed on time and to the best of your ability

To become an apprentice, you must:

• Be 16 or over not already in full-time education

• Have regular one-to-one sessions with a dedicated trainer either remotely or through visits to your workplace
• Learn and train for a specific job
• Get paid and receive holiday leave
• Get hands-on experience in a real job
