Apprentices work alongsideexperienced 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 theemployer 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:
The new National Minimum Wage (NMW) came into force on 1 October 2012 where all apprentices will be paid a minimum of £2.68 per hour*.
The new apprentice NMW applies to all 16 to 18 year olds and to those aged 19 and over in the first year of their Apprenticeship.
If you reach age 19 and have completed the first year of your Apprenticeship your employer must pay you at least the full NMW rate for those aged 18 to 20. If you are already 19 and have completed the first year of your Apprenticeship you must be paid at least the NMW rate for your age.
