Why choose an apprenticeship?

- Access to career progression - many apprentices go on to higher-level qualifications or leadership roles.
What to expect during your apprenticeship
- 20% off-the-job learning - as part of your apprenticeship, you'll spend at least 20% of your working hours on structured learning activities. This could include attending workshops, completing online modules, shadowing colleagues, or working on projects that develop your skills.
- Regular reviews and support - you'll have scheduled progress reviews with your training provider and line manager to ensure you're on track and supported throughout your journey.
- A clear path to completion - each apprenticeship ends with an End Point Assessment (EPA), where you'll demonstrate the knowledge, skills, and behaviours you've gained.
- Networking – be part of a local government apprenticeship network group and regular tea and chats with apprentices within NCC.
