Apprenticeship Programme

The Apprenticeship programme enables young people who are in employment to gain nationally recognised qualifications in Youth Work. The Apprenticeship route offers an alternative entry into youth work and incorporates theory and work-based study.

Participants will gain the knowledge and skills that are applicable to their role, including the underlying skills to work in the Youth Work sector. Our Apprenticeship contract is sub-contracted by Pembrokeshire College.  The Apprenticeship Programme is led by the Welsh Government and supported by the European Social Fund.
