The Team
How can we help you?
Apprenticeships are a tried and tested way to develop new talent and upskill existing talent. Employers who use apprenticeships to support their training plans often notice a reduction in staff turnover, and an increase in employee loyalty and satisfaction.
Additionally, they can be a more cost effective way to recruit new staff and make succession plans for the future.
We can either recruit for you or you can recruit an apprentice yourself. If you would like us to recruit for you, we will: discuss you needs, work with you to create a job description, and advertise your vacancy through the National Apprenticeship Service and local Careers teams.
All applicants will be screened and interviewed by the college initially. Those meeting your requirements will be selected for you to put through your own interview process.
Our full-time students regularly engage with employers as part of their course – whether that is through work experience, industrial placements, employer visits / tours, guest speakers from industry or working on live employer briefs.
It is important to us that our students engage with a range of employers as part of their course, learning important work skills and seeing for themselves the opportunities and careers available.
The employer engagement team are on hand to discuss any available funding options for your business and support you with eligibility criteria along with how to apply.
