Get a head start in business with a Business Administration Apprenticeship.

We offer Apprenticeships at Level 2 and Advanced Apprenticeships at Level 3 to people aged 16-24, free of charge.

An apprenticeship consists of 3 strands: an NVQ in Business Administration; a Technical Certificate in Administration and Key Skills, which consist of Application of Number and Communication.

Apprenticeships are offered to people who work in an administrative role and Advanced Apprenticeships to people who are in a supervisory role or have responsibility for certain tasks.

Apprenticeships are delivered and achieved on an individual basis. Each apprentice is assigned an assessor who will guide them through the apprenticeship and will assess their competence through a range of methods (direct observation, verbal questioning and professional discussion). We run off the job training sessions in our centres during work time. These sessions train apprentices for the Technical Certificate and individual training to provide key skills support. Apprentices will develop portfolios of evidence for the NVQ and key skills with planning, guidance and full support from their assessor.

Below are some of the units which need to be accomplished in order to achieve the qualification:

Carry out your responsibilities at work
Work within your business environment
Actions to reduce risks in health and safety
Use IT systems
Manage diary systems
Design and produce documents
Business Administration Apprenticeships will take approximately 12 months and Advanced Apprenticeships 18 months to complete.
