What is an Apprenticeship?
Apprentices work with an employer to gain the experience and skills needed to do the job, and, at the same time, get the qualifications to prove they can do it! An Apprenticeship is an excellent way of gaining qualifications and workplace experience at the same time. You get paid while you learn and gain practical skills to help you in your career.
You, your employer and ncn tutors will draw up an individual learning plan (ILP) which
outlines the work that you will do. At college, you learn practical skills as well as the theory
behind them. Evidence of your work is collected in a portfolio and used to assess your
achievements.
