Training Delivery

Our apprenticeships are delivered by IPS, a leading apprenticeship provider based in Rochester. You’ll attend college in 4-week full-time training blocks relevant to your location and role, returning to your site between each training block. It’s a great way to become familiar with your role and, importantly, your colleagues at Cory to gain a better understanding of our business.

Please note that both options deliver similar apprenticeship training, it’s the work location that is different. When you apply, you can choose one or both options.

You must have (or expect to obtain) GCSE passes at grade 4 or higher in the following subjects:

• English Language
• Mathematics
• at least one Science subject
  
  
  

Please note that candidates who hold a Bachelors or Masters degree cannot apply for our apprenticeships, as they are funded by HM Government and are aimed to teach new skills.
