What’s in it for you?

Modern Apprenticeships can open the door to a career by equipping the trainee with the skills, experience and qualifications required to develop a career path. A key factor to the Modern Apprenticeship programme is that it provides the opportunity for earning while learning.

Modern Apprenticeships provide:
• a chance to learn while you earn – to get real work experience;
• Scottish Vocational Qualification (SVQ) – the sector/industry-based vocational element or industry equivalent;
• Depending on industry, a technical certificate to show you understand the underpinning theory or knowledge;

• Core Skills – covering literacy, numeracy, Information Technology, problem solving and working with others, plus wider key and business skills as required by the sector; and
• a chance to learn from experienced workers in the sector.
