Apprenticeships in Shropshire

We offer a wide range of apprenticeships in Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin and the surrounding areas. Apprentices do real jobs for real employers, so you’re paid while you learn, and you will start earning from day one of your apprenticeship. Apprenticeships require you to attend college one day a week as part of your learning programme.

    2. Apply for an apprenticeship in your preferred area

    Below are the apprenticeships the college offers. If you know what industry you would like to work in and have found an employer willing to take you on, just click the apply button on your chosen apprenticeship course below. 

    Many of our apprentices have found their own employer through family, friends, work trials or contacting employers in their local area to see if they would support their apprenticeship.


    3. Apply for a full-time course in your chosen subject

    Don't worry if you can't find an employer in your chosen subject area, simply apply for a full-time course in the subject you’re interested in, and then when an opportunity comes along, you can transfer over to an apprenticeship. In some trades, you will start at Level 1 or 2, regardless of your qualifications as you will need to build up industry-specific skills.
