Exploring the benefits of an Apprenticeship

An Level 2 Apprenticeship is more than just a job—it’s your gateway to launching a successful career while earning a full-time wage! As an apprentice, you’ll work full-time for an employer and spend about 20% of your time on studies. This balance of work includes a mix of on-the-job training and online learning tailored to provide the skills necessary for your specific industry and role. Our programmes are designed to ensure you gain the knowledge and hands-on experience required to excel in your career.

By the end of your apprenticeship, you’ll have substantial practical experience and a robust set of new skills, preparing you to advance confidently on your new career path.

Earn while you learn: Apprenticeship Wages explained

Did you know that Level 2 Apprenticeships allow you to earn money while you learn? The Government has set wage guidelines, which vary depending on your age and the year of your apprenticeship. For example, in 2023, if you’re an apprentice aged 16-18 or over 19, you can expect to earn £5.28 per hour in your first year. Once you’ve completed your first year, if you’re over 19, you’re entitled to the National Minimum Wage or National Living Wage rate for your age.

As an apprentice, you’ll get:

  • Paid and be entitled to the National Minimum Wage.
  • Time for training or study as part of your apprenticeship.
  • Holiday pay and other employee rights.

Level 2 Apprenticeships FAQs:

If you’re looking to gain valuable skills in your chosen career field while getting hands-on work experience, apprenticeships are a great option. As an apprentice, you’ll be performing the same tasks as any other employee at the company, but with added support. You’ll spend 80% of your time completing your daily work duties and the remaining 20% working towards your qualification with the guidance of our Learning and Development Tutors and possibly a workplace mentor, who could be your manager, a colleague or someone who has already completed the course at your place of employment.
