Apprenticeships are a great alternative to university and help you gain practical experience while gaining a recognised qualification.
What is an apprenticeship? |
Useful information |
Apprenticeships are work-based training that allow you to gain a qualification while you work and get paid.
There are different levels of qualification, explained in the table below. More and more employers recognise the benefits of taking on students after their sixth form studies and helping them gain university level qualifications. At Aquinas we have an ever increasing number of students who go on to gain exciting and progressive apprenticeships in their chosen field, many taking degree apprenticeships. |
It is useful for you to start exploring the different sectors and levels of apprenticeship early to help give you an idea of what is available that may interest you. Below are some useful websites (with links at the bottom of the page) to start looking at current vacancies.
