Modern Apprenticeships might be right for you if you prefer to learn from hands-on experience, and would prefer part time rather than full time study. Being able to earn while you learn is another plus point.
The Technical Apprenticeship in Engineering and Digital Manufacturing is available at SCQF Level 8.
The goal of the apprenticeship is to develop competence in the use of existing, evolving and emerging technologies and to enable apprentices to apply advanced engineering practice and principles in supporting and making engineering and manufacturing decisions.
Anyone living in Scotland who is over school leaving age can apply. Sometimes employers set an upper age limit, as the Scottish Government doesn’t always fund training for those aged over 24.
You would check this with individual employers.
2 Highers plus Maths at National 5; or a relevant NC/NQ at SCQF Level 6.
Existing workplace skills or experience will also be considered.
You will be able to see details in vacancies advertised.
You will achieve the relevant Scottish Vocational Qualification (SVQ), Diploma or other competency based qualification. In addition, you work towards core skills and complete industry specific training.
This apprenticeship can take up to 48 months to complete.
