Early Career Programmes available
There are various Modern Apprenticeships including Business Administration, Customer Service, Digital Applications Support, Digital Marketing, and IT.
Our programmes are work-based qualifications which are tailored to each individual, driven by their specific job role and tasks. Each candidate will earn while they learn by receiving hands-on experience allowing them to generate evidence leading to an industry-recognised qualification in their respective fields. Duration on programme varies across all programmes and is driven by the candidate and employer, the time they spend on gathering their work-based evidence, and the units they must attain. On average a programme will take 9 – 15 months depending on the programme and work involved.
