Unlock Your Potential
An apprenticeship is a brilliant way to kick-start your career or to advance your career if you are already employed. An apprenticeship can be started at any age and can be used for both new employees entering a business or for existing employees looking to up-skill or progress their career.
You can submit a general application and we will match your skills and aspirations to one or several apprenticeship opportunities in the North Devon area. You only need to apply to us once in each (yearly) recruitment cycle.
We work with a community of dedicated engineering employers who are all committed to training the next generation of engineers for the local area.
Taking on an apprentice is a brilliant way to bring in new talent to your business or develop new skills within your existing workforce.
Our no obligation visit to your business will identify your needs, match suitable apprenticeship qualifications and advise you on your funding options. We can complete the free consultation either in person or via a Teams meeting.
