Apprenticeships:
An apprenticeship is a nationally recognised training programme that combines real work with learning and training, both on and off the job. Therefore, an apprenticeship allows you to gain a qualification whilst working. It is the government’s preferred option for all vocational learners.

The benefits of doing an apprenticeship for the individual:
-  you learn and gain qualifications while actually doing a real job
-  By studying at college and training on site, you will learn the theoretical knowledge and the practical skills that complement each other and enable you to understand both aspects of the job
-  an apprentice will receive a wage, whilst training and working towards the full apprenticeship

Currently we offer apprenticeships in Health and Social Care. Please click on the course of your interest.  

Eligibility requirements:
You are able to do an apprenticeship in Health & Social Care through our college in one of two ways: under the Train to Gain service (please refer to page 11 onwards for more information on Train to Gain) or privately.

To be eligible under the Train to Gain service you must:
-  be aged 25 years or over
-  be resident in the UK/EU for 3 years or more
-  not be an overseas national subject to employment or learning restrictions and/or have a time limit on your stay (other than a refugee or asylum seeker)

For those individuals who do not meet the Train to Gain requirements but would like to do an apprenticeship you must:
-  be resident in England
-  be over 16 years of age
-  not be in full time education

Fees:
If you meet the eligibility requirements under the Train to Gain service (as above) then your apprenticeship is free! Otherwise, you can do your apprenticeship privately – just contact us to provide you with an up-to-date fee.
