Find out more about Apprenticeships

Kickstart your career and earn a salary while you learn with an apprenticeship from Easton College.

Apprenticeships provide excellent career opportunities and allow you to develop the specific skills needed for jobs in the industry you want to work in. If you are aged 16+ and looking to get a head start on your career an apprenticeship is ideal for you.

We offer Level 2 and Level 3 agriculture apprenticeships and Level 3 veterinary nurse apprenticeships. 

You will spend the majority of your time training with your employer on the job. For most apprenticeships you will come into college one day a week and get training and development with a mentor in your workplace.

What type of Apprenticeships can I study?

There are four types of apprenticeship programmes. The level you do will depend on your qualifications, experience and the type of industry you will work in.

  • Intermediate apprenticeships - Level 2, equivalent to five GCSE passes at grades 9 to 5.
  • Advanced apprenticeships - Level 3, equivalent to two A Level passes
  • Higher apprenticeships - Level 4 and 5, equivalent to foundation degree and above
  • Degree apprenticeships - Level 6 and 7, equivalent to a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree
