Alongside your studies, you will gain real-world experience that will effectively prepare you for a successful career in the utilities industry. As a leading infrastructure services and engineering company, we’re proud to have some of the best industry experts working for us. Whether you take on one of our site or office-based apprenticeships, you will be working alongside and learning from the best in the business. With an Avove apprenticeship, you will develop your skills with expert mentorship and support from our knowledgeable colleagues.  

 

Choosing an apprenticeship means you have the opportunity to earn a real wage and have access to paid annual leave. When it comes to degree apprenticeships, there are no student loans or tuition fees to pay, as the costs are covered by the government and your employer. So, instead of finishing your qualification with a large student loan to pay off, you will have an extensive skill set, a wealth of industry knowledge and a professional qualification whilst earning a salary throughout your entire apprenticeship. 

 

When it comes to our Apprenticeship schemes, we offer so much more than a job. We are invested in your long-term career development. You will complete a structured training programme that compliments the skills you are learning on the job. Whether you’re taking your first steps into the world of work with a level 2 apprenticeship or looking to advance your career with a degree apprenticeship, we will equip you with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in your chosen field.
