Apprenticeships and Advanced Apprenticeships at Capel Manor College
Combing qualifications with experience.
Looking to develop your employees’ skills?
Then Capel Manor’s Apprenticeship schemes could be the ideal way for them to gain a nationally accredited qualification while they work. On the job apprentices over the age of 16 (note these are now open to those 25+) work alongside their employer and the rest they learn from Capel Manor College on a day release basis. The programmes rely on a close working partnership between Employers, the Work based Learning Provider and the Apprentice. Apprenticeships are designed by businesses in your sector to meet the needs of your business. This means the training is always relevant and it is tailored to the needs of your sector by people who genuinely understand what you do.
