We receive no commission or payment for these vacancies and do not carry out any checks on these employers. Ansbury are not responsible for any of the company’s bad practice, should it arise. Apprentices work alongside experienced staff to gain specific skills. Apprentices also attend a training provider such as a local college (usually on a day release basis) to receive additional training which leads to recognised qualifications. Apprenticeships usually last between one and three years depending on the training programme. Looking for an apprenticeship is like looking for a job. You will be interviewed and may need to take a test for the employer or training provider to check an apprenticeship is right for you. If you would like more information about apprenticeships or any other careers options, just call into your nearest Connexions office, or give us a call on 01258 454454. How much do you get paid?
