Become an Apprentice

Click here to complete our online application form to register your interest.

Completing this application is important, as it means we can provide you with important information, and a sector expert can help you find a job. It also means we can enrol you at the College, offering you a back-up option on another course, in case you don’t find an Apprenticeship job or you change your mind.

(Tick whether you have already found an Apprenticeship employer or still need to find one.)

STEP 2. ATTEND AN INTERVIEW EVENING

Once you have completed the online application form, you will be invited to an Interview Evening. You will receive a text alert, and an email with time and date. This will be an informal meeting with a member of our team to provide you with an offer* and important information on your next steps.

*If you do not have an Apprenticeship Employer at this point, you will receive a conditional offer

STEP 3. START YOUR JOB SEARCH

One of our sector specific Recruitment Advisers will be in contact in Spring to see how you are getting on with your job search. You will be given the option to book a 1:1 session with them to discuss your Apprenticeship job search in more detail.

You will need to have a job in order to become an Apprentice. If you don’t, not to worry. View our Job Search Info page here and search Current Vacancies on our job site.
