In today's ever changing, highly competitive employment market, the right qualifications have never been more prized. That's why Apprenticeships are seen as the clear way ahead.  For learners Apprenticeships offer an opportunity to gain practical on-the-job experience and a chance to earn as they train.

For employers they create the skilled, professional and highly motivated workforce that will give them the competitive edge. One important government priority is to bridge the very real skills gap in the UK. Their target is to see 500,000 apprenticeships on offer each year by 2020.

 Pathfinder offers apprenticeships in:

Business Administration - handout

Customer Service - handout

IT Application Specialist - handout

In order to undertake an Apprenticeship you need to be in a paid position which requires you to work for a minimum of 16 hours per week.  Your employer will support you throughout your Apprenticeship and release you to study for the components of the course.  You may learn at the workplace and/or at one of our learning centres.
