I am interested in becoming an apprentice what should I do?

The National Business College can support you throughout your apprenticeship journey. We work with employers across the West and South Yorkshire area and after receiving your initial enquiry we will arrange to have a discussion with you where we will discuss your current skills and aspirations. If you are looking for an apprenticeship we will discuss our current vacancies and if they are suitable we will support you with your application and arrange interviews. We will thoroughly assess your entry position on to the apprenticeship and tailor your training and support to meet your needs.

How can we help you?

    How long will it take to complete?

    Your apprenticeship can take between one and three years to complete, depending on which apprenticeship pathway you follow, what level it’s at, and your previous experience. Throughout your apprenticeship you will be supported by your Trainer who will work with you and your employer to devise a programme of learning to enable you to gain the skills, knowledge and behaviours you need to be assessed as competent. All of our apprenticeships have an end-point assessment, which will test you at the end of the apprenticeship to make sure you are fully competent in your apprenticeship standard.

    What happens after I finish my apprenticeship?

    The vast majority of apprentices are offered a permanent role during or at the end of their apprenticeship. The apprenticeship is only the first step and you can progress on to higher levels and management apprenticeships depending on your chosen pathway.
