Study Programmes

Study Programmes are the first step for school leavers, aged 16-19 years. Over 12 months, you’ll study for a vocational (practical) qualification and gain some work experience. You’ll also build on your employability skills and achieve the level of maths and English that employers look for.
Business Administration Training Academy
The Business Administration Training Academy is a fully-funded 6-month course for 16-18 year olds and is the perfect foundation to help get you started in a successful Business career in a range of companies and industries.
You will gain a good understanding of basic administrative tasks as well as practical experience in a business environment through exciting work placements.
Qualifications:
- Level 2 Certificate in Principles of Business Administration
- Up to Level 2 Maths and English
Traineeships

Traineeships are a way for 16-24-year olds to develop first-hand experience of the workplace with a 6-month traineeship (sometimes called an internship).
We reach out to employers for you to make sure we line up work experience in your area of interest.
Getting work experience is one of the best ways of signalling to an employer that you’re ready for work.
Apprenticeships

If you already have some relevant work experience, and a strong level of maths and English too, you may feel ready to go straight for an apprenticeship. Anyone between the ages of 16-65 can apply to become an apprentice.
