If you want to learn skills and gain qualifications, but formal education isn't for you, you might want to consider an Apprenticeship.

 

Help for employers looking to take on an apprentice and those looking at apprentice opportunities is available from;

 

Beneast Training

 

Blackpool and the Fylde College

 

Myerscough College

 

Lancashire County Council

 

You can learn skills or a trade in the work place - what's called Vocational Training - and gain formal qualifications and start your career, but get paid at the same time.

 

Many employers in many different occupations offer Apprenticeships, and programmes are available from a number of different training companies and providers. Wyred Up will give you the information to find one which best suits you and your personal circumstances.
