/Definition of Apprenticeship
An apprenticeship is a job with an accompanying skills development programme.
Apprentices cannot be employed solely to deliver an apprenticeship
There must be a genuine job available after they have completed their apprenticeship.
Apprentices gain the technical knowledge, practical experience and wider skills they need for their immediate job and future career.
The apprentice gains this through a wide mix of learning in the workplace, formal off-the-job training and the opportunity to practise new skills in a real work environment.
