What is an Apprenticeship?

An Apprenticeship combines academic learning with work based practical application. This is a real job with work-based training programmes enabling people to improve skills and provide progression opportunities. Apprenticeships are no longer focused on the ages 16-24 years old; it is now open to people of all ages with varied levels of previous qualifications.

Apprenticeships in healthcare include both clinical and non-clinical roles. The duration can take anything from one to four years to complete depending on which level of apprenticeship you are completing.
