The Growth Company Education and Skills

We offer a wide range of Apprenticeships and Pre-Apprenticeship (Study Programmes). Pre-Apprenticeships are a great opportunity for young people to gain the knowledge, skills and behaviours that employers are looking for in an apprentice. They will also gain hands on experience and be supported by our team to help find a suitable apprenticeship. You can find out more about our Pre-Apprenticeships by watching this short video

Students can register their interest with us by completing this form, explaining in the message box which areas they are interested in. A member of the Recruitment Team will get in touch with them to discuss their options.
