Modern Apprenticeships
These are available for young people aged 16 to 21 years. Modern Apprenticeships provide for extra support for an Apprentice during their Apprenticeship training period. For example, there are four visits a year from a co-ordinator appointed to look after a Modern Apprentice. If you need extra training in such areas as literacy or maths, then this can also be provided to you, and is usually free of charge. There is also general support for any problems you have during the training period and assistance to make the training work better.
There is no charge to you for a Modern Apprenticeship service. Modern Apprenticeship Co-ordinators include Industry Training Organisations (such as the BCITO), Polytechnics, Private Training Establishments and job finder organisations.
