Apprenticeships

What can I expect from being an apprentice?

Excellent vocational training.
A salary and on-going support from your employer and college.
In-depth experience, insight and understanding of the business sector you are working in.
A clear career path
The opportunity to achieve industry-standard qualifications and even a degree.
Maths and English as functional skills, if not already achieved.

Do I need to be working?

An apprenticeship requires you to have full time (30 hours plus a week) employment in the relevant industry, whilst attending college one day per week. You can be employed part time for a minimum of 16 hours per week. However, this will extend the duration you have on the programme.

Your employer will need to support your 20% off the job training requirement and help you track achievement of this using the college software once you are enrolled. The 20% off the job training may include college attendance, evidencing workplace activity, attending external events and general tasks which are substantive new skills.

If you do not have an employer in place, then the apprenticeships team at Chichester College Group can help you to find a suitable role. You can contact the team at apprenticeships@chichester.ac.uk or on 01243 812948.
