Apprenticeships
Choosing an apprenticeship will give you the chance
to train whilst being in paid employment in a range of settings
including kennels, catteries, rescue centres, grooming salons, pet
shops and many more.
Funding for apprenticeships is available for young
people, aged 16 – 25 years. If you are over 25,
there are many options available – contact us to find out what they
are.
As an apprentice, you will develop knowledge and practical
skills by attending a day release course at our Moreton Morrell or
Pershore centres.
You will be supported in building portfolios of work, completing
assignments and progressing through a series of assessments at each
stage of the course.
