Whether you want to focus on becoming a general mechanic or specialise in accident repairs, work in a small garage or for a large national chain, or even open your own business in the future, apprenticeship training will enable you to develop the skills and knowledge you need for your chosen area.
During your apprenticeship you’ll combine working with studying towards occupational standards set by employers, learning-on-the-job alongside experienced colleagues in the workplace rather than sitting in a classroom all day – and, because you’ll be doing a real job for a real employer, you’ll get paid too!
In the workplace you’ll learn on-the-job by working alongside existing experienced staff, and when you’re in college you’ll be taught by qualified tutors who have worked in the industry themselves.
What’s more, you’ll be supported throughout your training by college staff who will work closely with your employer to ensure that the skills you are learning are what is required by their business and that you will achieve your full potential and career aspirations.
We develop training to meet the needs of businesses, so you can be assured you’ll gain the skills that they are looking for in their employees – and, if you impress them during your training, you may even be offered a job when you’ve completed apprenticeship.
At City of Wolverhampton College, we offer strong links with leading universities and over 1,000 employers – meaning our courses are all career focussed and relevant.
If you’re already employed in the industry and want to improve your skills and boost your promotion prospects you can benefit from apprenticeship training too, just ask your employer to email employerenquiries@wolverhampton.livedraft.co.uk and a member of the team will contact them to discuss your training further.
