Part of Salford City College Group

There has never been a better time to be an apprentice. Many of the biggest and best companies are recruiting more apprentices than ever before, providing brilliant career opportunities across a wide range of occupational areas.

Businesses need apprentices to develop their talent and drive their organisation forward.

The recent apprenticeship reforms have ensured that apprenticeships are recognised by all as a fantastic way to develop a career, without incurring any student loans or study debts. The government have placed apprenticeships at the heart of the skills system in the UK, ensuring all apprenticeships provide individuals with the skills, knowledge and behaviours they need to thrive in their chosen career.

The college believes the more support an apprentice gets with any personal issues and struggles, the better they will perform in their apprenticeship. Support Officers make it their mission to ensure the happiness of apprentices.
