Try this courseDoing an apprenticeship after IGCSEs
DID YOU KNOW? You can do an apprenticeship after you’ve done your IGCSEs. An Apprenticeship combines training with practical experience and a salary, and you can find different levels of Apprenticeships to match your education levels and interests.
An apprenticeship can lead to all kinds of opportunities. You could ease into a job or career. You could follow up your apprenticeship with college or university. You could do another next-level apprenticeship. You could even do a degree apprenticeship, where you can combine a next-level apprenticeship with study towards a degree qualification that your employer and the government pay for. It’s a great way to get a degree without student debt!
ApprenticeshipsVocational Qualifications
After your IGCSEs you can study for vocational and competency-based qualifications including awards, certificates and diplomas. These are all industry-recognised qualifications and they are awarded by organisations like City and Guilds, Edexcel (BTEC) and OCR.
If you want to get into an industry or swap exams for practical hands-on learning, vocational qualifications like BTECs or T-Levels (T Levels are in England only) can be a great way to build skills and knowledge along with a valid qualification. You can often build real-life experience and relationships with employers too, because many courses offer work placements.
Whether you’re interested in social care, art or digital design, business, technology, engineering, sales and marketing, construction, retail, law or pretty much anything else, there’s likely to be a vocational qualification that will take your career to the next step.
