Traineeships

A traineeship is a course with work experience that gets you ready for work or an apprenticeship. It can last from 6 weeks up to 1 year, though most traineeships last for less than 6 months.

You can apply if you’re:

• eligible to work in England
• unemployed and have little or no work experience
• aged 16 to 24 and qualified up to and including Level 3 (equivalent to A Level)

You’ll get:

• help with getting work, such as writing a CV and finding a job
• a work placement of 70 hours or more
• help with the skills you’ll need for an apprenticeship or job in the area you want to work in
• a job interview or feedback from an employer
• help with English, maths and basic digital skills (if you need it)

You won’t be paid, but you may be given expenses for things like travel and meals.
