3Will I get a job after an apprenticeship?
Throughout your apprenticeship, you will be developing the skills and knowledge required for a rewarding career in Project Management. Many of our students stay on with the same company after they have received their qualification or choose to progress to the next level of apprenticeship. Apprenticeships offer hands-on training and an opportunity to put your skills into practice, giving you a competitive edge amongst your peers. In fact, recent research from the Department of Education found that 93% of apprenticeship completers are in work.
4What academic qualifications are required for an apprenticeship?
Anyone in England over the age of 16 years old can apply for an apprenticeship, regardless of whether you are employed, unemployed or leaving school. There is no upper age limit. However, different employers have different requirements. We do our best to ensure the right fit, but typically ask for a minimum of a C grade in at least 5 GCSEs, including Maths and English, for our Level 3 and Level 4 apprenticeships. For our Level 6 degree apprenticeships, we require a minimum of two A levels A*-C or 112 UCAS points. For more information on entry requirements, visit our courses page.
5How much will it cost me to do an apprenticeship at LMC?
Apprenticeships are funded from contributions made by the government and your employer, so you will not have to pay tuition fees or pay back student loans. As an apprentice, you will also have the opportunity to earn while you learn. To find out more about the benefits of our apprenticeships scheme, visit our courses page.
6Will I earn money as an apprentice?
Yes, all apprenticeships at LMC are paid opportunities and apprenticeships will receive a competitive compensation package. If you are interested in finding out more, please email admin@londonmetropolitan.college or ring us on +44 (0) 203 883 1305
7What qualification will I gain from an apprenticeship?
Throughout your apprenticeship, you will be working towards a nationally- recognised apprenticeship framework. This has been accredited by relevant regulatory bodies. Depending on the programme level you enrol on, you will receive a corresponding qualification. For example, students on our Level 6 Project Manager Degree Apprenticeship will receive a BSC (Hons) accredited by the University of West London (UWL).
8How is the training delivered?
All apprenticeships offer work-based qualification, so a proportion of your training will be completed on-site. Alongside this, you will have access to our virtual classrooms with technical, operational and software training, as well as a gateway assessment review to ensure you are prepared to pass your end-point assessments.
