Apprenticeships (formerly The National Apprenticeship Service) offers apprenticeships to anyone over the age of 16 years in a wide range of industries.
Apprenticeships, part of the Skills Funding Agency, is the government agency that coordinates apprenticeships in England.
Apprenticeships are an increasingly popular study option and are a great way to gain hands-on experience while studying towards an industry recognised qualification and earning a salary. They're available across a range of sectors, from accounting, business, IT, media and law, to construction, engineering and transport.
