Is it right for me?
To help you decide, have a think if these apply to you.
* Most of our apprenticeships are open to anyone over the age of 16 and theres no upper age limit. Please note that for safety critical roles the minimum age will be higher.
* You must not have already achieved a similar or higher-level qualification in the apprenticeship role you have applied for. For example, if you have a degree in Engineering, you will not be eligible to apply for an Engineering apprenticeship. However, you could apply for another apprenticeship in a different profession, such as Finance.
* You will not be eligible for an apprenticeship if you are enrolled in/studying towards another qualification, as the apprenticeship is a full-time role with study commitments.
