📚✨ National Apprenticeship Week ✨📚

Education can open far more doors than you might expect, including the pathway into an apprenticeship. Apprenticeships combine learning with real, hands-on experience, helping people build skills, confidence and a meaningful career from day one.

There are so many opportunities available now and even more on the horizon. Whether you’re just starting out or thinking about your next step, an apprenticeship could be the perfect way to learn, earn and grow straight from secondary school and even before!

Whilst we do not offer apprenticeships yet, please join our waiting list to keep up-to-date with our opportunities 👉 www.ncea.org.uk/careers/
