Apprenticeships: for apprentice, employer and trainer

VTCT Apprenticeships

When you participate in a VTCT apprenticeship, either as the apprentice, employer or training provider, you will benefit in many ways.

As the apprentice,
you have the opportunity to earn while you learn, avoid the student debt trap and get a head start on your career.

As the employer,
you benefit from a more cost-effective way to train, with the opportunity to apply to a number of government funds and grants.

As a training provider,
you will develop close relationships with employers in the industry.

Our approach, at VTCT, is to support employers, training providers and apprentices to achieve the best possible outcome, whether on an Apprenticeship Standard or Framework. With end-to-end support, we strive to make the process as simple and straightforward as possible.

In addition to being a leading Awarding Organisation, VTCT is also an End-point Assessment Organisation that offers a fair, consistent and reliable End-point Assessment.

No matter what role you fill in the apprenticeship process, making the decision to take part in an apprenticeship is a significant commitment that has immense rewards.

This is an influential time for an apprentice to be a part of a successful business and hone key industry skills. They will be learning important foundational skills in the classroom that they can then take and apply in the workplace.
