As an employer in the manufacturing sector, offering apprenticeships is a great way to train new staff and for your business to benefit from an employee with the latest sector skills and knowledge.
The lean manufacturing operative apprenticeship has four specialist pathways – inspection and quality, logistics and materials, production and assembly or production processing – focussed on identifying problems, improving processes and increasing production which are essential for the efficient operation of any business.
Apprentices will combine working for the company with studying towards occupational standards set by employers and will train at our specialist Polymer Training Innovation Centre in Stafford which is equipped with a range of industry-standard equipment for the polymer processing industry.
What’s more, throughout their training, the apprentice will be supported by college staff who will work closely with you to ensure that the skills they are learning are what is required by your business and that they will achieve their full potential and career aspirations, as well as meet your business needs.
The college has a dedicated recruitment team to support employers in appointing an apprentice – including advertising vacancies, screening applicants and shortlisting candidates for interview; and with a talent pool of enthusiastic young people waiting for a business apprenticeship you can be sure you’ll be employing the right person for the job!
And, did you know that apprenticeships aren’t just for new staff? If you want to upskill and develop existing members of your team they can benefit from apprenticeship training too – email employerenquiries@wolvcoll.ac.uk and a member of the team will contact you to discuss your requirements further.
