Engineering Apprenticeships

Kick-start your career in the Engineering industry

Depending on your interest, you can train as an engineering manufacturing technician, engineering operative, engineering technician, machining technician, lean manufacturing operative or maintenance and operations engineer, developing skills and knowledge to enable you to work in a range of organisations in the future.

During your apprenticeship you’ll combine working for an employer with studying towards a set of occupational standards learning-on-the-job alongside experienced colleagues in the workplace rather than sitting in a classroom all day – and because you’ll be doing a real job you’ll get paid too!
