Apprenticeships

Gaining an Apprenticeship not only means you can earn money and get hands on practical work experience whilst you learn but it also increases your future employment prospects in your chosen career.
 

Our wide range of Apprenticeships and Advanced Apprenticeships are available to people aged 16+ in a wide range of career paths.

Training and assessment is flexible – provided in both the workplace, at the college and by ‘blended learning’, which includes e-learning from home. Apprenticeships last between one and four years – and to qualify for an Apprenticeship you must have an employer.
All Apprentices follow an Apprenticeship Framework, consisting of a National Vocational Qualification (NVQ), key skills qualifications, a technical certificate and employment rights and responsibilities.
The Level 2 Apprenticeship framework is equivalent to five GCSEs at grades A*-C, while the Level 3 Advanced Apprenticeship is equivalent to two A-Levels.
By gaining an Apprenticeship qualification, employees give themselves an excellent chance of improving their overall employment prospects.
The employer gains too, with a well trained workforce, increased productivity and performance and an increased competitive edge.

Weather forces college closures

Northumberland College was forced to close its centres this morning (Thursday) due to the ongoing snow.

All students are advised that there will be no lessons this afternoon or evening at any centres. The college expects to open as normal again tomorrow (Friday).

The college phone system is currently down, so we are unable to take any calls.

Engineers are working hard to fix the problem and hope to have the system back up and running soon. In the meantime, you can email advice.centre@northland.ac.uk or use the Live support service via the button on this home page to access our contact centre staff.

Apologies for any inconvenience.
