What is a Programme?

These courses are for young people aged 16-18 who wish to progress onto an apprenticeship but don’t feel quite ready. You will gain hands-on experience that employers are looking for and a nationally recognised qualification. On successful completion, you will be offered support for progression onto one of our apprenticeships.
