BENEFITS OF EMPLOYING A SCHOOL-BASED APPRENTICE!
Meet the current and future skills need of your business. Hiring an apprentice is a productive and effective way to grow talent and develop a motivated, skilled and qualified workforce. We need more supportive employers like Bradley Wakefield (Bradley Wakefield Bricklaying) who are motivated to mentor, train and support the next generation.
School-based Apprenticeships provide students aged 15 years or older with valuable employment skills, hands-on industry experience and a nationally recognised qualification, while still completing secondary school qualifications.
