How to find an apprenticeship
National Apprenticeship Week is where you can find about about apprenticeships and there's a toolkit for you and your parents/carers to download and read at National Apprenticeship Week.
It depends where you live
Degree apprenticeships work differently depending on where you are in the UK. England and Wales both offer degree apprenticeships, with England dominating the offerings. In Scotland, degree apprenticeships are known as graduate apprenticeships. Northern Ireland offers higher level apprenticeships (HLAs) that offer you qualifications up to Level 7, which is the equivalent of a master’s degree. However, the majority are at Level 5, which is equivalent to a foundation degree.
