Apprenticeship application process

1) Apply for an apprenticeship

2) Attend an apprenticeship interview

  • For school leavers, apprenticeship interviews are held from February onwards. You will receive an email inviting you to book a session. The session includes a presentation, followed by a Maths and English assessment and an interview.
  • If you have already left school, we hold in person interviews on a weekly basis. We will send you an email inviting you to book a session.
  • We will contact you to let you know the outcome of your interview and give a conditional offer of an apprenticeship.

3) Find an apprenticeship vacancy

  • Use guidance from our specialist team to build an engaging and professional CV
  • We will email you details of vacancies in your sector(s) of interest and submit your CV to vacancies.
  • If you find your own employer, let us know on 0161 9086630 or apprenticeships@tameside.ac.uk.

Remember, a conditional apprenticeship offer does not guarantee you an apprenticeship start. An apprenticeship is only guaranteed once you have secured employment.
