How apprenticeships work

What is an Apprenticeship?

An apprenticeship is a combination of a job and an approved training programme that gives an individual the skills and experience required for a specific job role. Our apprenticeships can range from a level 2 through to a level 4 and employers can recruit new staff or enrol current staff onto an apprenticeship programme at any time to up-skill their workforce.

Our apprenticeship duration may vary depending on the apprenticeship selected, but it will be a minimum of 12-15 months. Employing an apprentice is like employing any other member of staff but they must be contracted for at least 30 hours a week and have a contract that covers the duration of their apprenticeship programme.

To gain the knowledge and know-how we advise that an apprentice must be given 20% of their contract time to complete off-the-job training.

So that this can be completed effectively we will discuss and develop and off the job hours as part of Get Actives bespoke programme design and consultation.
