Types of Apprenticeships

The most common form of apprenticeship is called a Traditional Apprentice (TA). ConstructionSkills can also offer Programme-Led Apprentices (PLAs) within England. Both offer key business benefits.

Traditional Apprenticeships

A traditional apprenticeship combines study at college with experience on-site over a 2-3 year period (or 4 years in Scotland). The main advantage of this route is that it gives you the opportunity to have a hand in the apprentice’s development from day one, so you can train them to suit your company.

You may also be able to claim up to £9,000 in CITB-ConstructionSkills Grant over a 3 year apprenticeship.
