All apprenticeships need to include training from a reliable provider. There are different providers for different apprenticeships.

3. Choose the level of the qualification and the apprenticeship category (the industry your apprenticeship is in) 

4. When you have found the course that you will be doing during your apprenticeship, click on it. This page will give you all the information you need about the qualification, including the length of the course, the qualification level and the maximum funding available.

5. At the bottom of the page you can enter a location; pick from the choices that appear as you type, and you will be taken to a list of training providers offering this qualification in or near this location.
