Horizons
The annual exam results period is fast approaching and many
young people will be considering their next steps. For those ready to enter the
world of work Apprenticeships are a great way to gain qualifications, progress
in a chosen career and earn a salary.
Types
of Apprenticeships
There are three levels of Apprenticeship from Intermediate
and Advanced to Higher Apprenticeships at degree level. So whether young people
are receiving their GCSE or A Level results there is an Apprenticeship that
could suit them. Apprenticeships are available in 1,500 job roles across 170
different industries. To find out more visit the Types
of Apprenticeship section at apprenticeships.org.uk
For young people not quite ready to start an Apprenticeship
there are Traineeships. They give young people essential work preparation
training, work experience, maths and English skills needed to get an
Apprenticeship or other job.

available in their area is by using the Av Search App. It is FREE to download
