 Does your Company employ young people aged 16-24?
If the answer is yes, we can help recruit and train your staff for FREE.
The Apprenticeship Scheme gives a company like yours the opportunity to train your staff for free. Apprentices learn through a combination of on and off-the-job education and training. On the job they work alongside your staff and the rest of the time they learn from Ridgemond, usually on a day release basis.
Apprenticeships are designed by business for business. Business representatives from your industry decide on the important course content. Because they genuinely understand your business, the training will be relevant.
 Ridgemond Training offers Apprenticeship opportunities in:
- Bricklaying
- Carpentry and Joinery
- Horticulture
- Painting & Decorating
There are 2 levels on Apprenticeships available:

apprentice will work towards an NVQ Level 2 that incorporates Key
Skills and in most cases a technical certificate.
Advanced Apprenticeship - this will take a further 16 months to complete. During that time, the apprentice will work towards NVQ Level 3 and a technical certificate also incorporating Key Skills.
Key Skills can include communication, application of number, information technology, working with others, improving learning performance and problem solving.
