APPRENTICESHIPS

An Apprenticeship is a training programme designed to develop job-related skills, knowledge and competencies in a particular professional area.

With a guaranteed salary, real experience and a nationally-recognised qualification, what more could you want? Through a combination of training in the workplace and college study, you will be career ready. Sparsholt and Andover College work with over 1,100 employers across more than 40 different industries.

Apprenticeship standards are employer-led and outline the skills, knowledge and behaviours required to carry out a certain job role. All apprentices must take an independent assessment at the end of their training to assess their ability and competence in their job role. Before you start your Apprenticeship you will need to find employment and you can go about this in a number of ways:

• Speak to our dedicated team who have excellent links with local and national companies

• Visit the Apprenticeships website www.apprenticeships.gov.uk to find a vacancy

• Contact local companies and see if they are hiring and willing to take on an Apprentice

Once you are employed and registered on an Apprenticeship programme your training will be arranged at the College, and at your place of work. The College will also ensure that you have sound English and Maths qualifications to accompany the Apprenticeship.
