What is a Modern Apprenticeship?
A Modern Apprenticeship (MA) is the perfect way to earn while you learn; get a job, get paid, and get qualified all at the same time.
MAs are an ideal way to gain the skills needed to build the career you want, perfect for ambitious individuals looking to succeed in their chosen industry.
Wide range of opportunities
Modern Apprenticeships are available in a wide variety of areas – everything from engineering and construction to customer services and business administration, as well as many more.
You'll learn a broad range of useful, transferable skills that you can take with you when you move on to the next level of your career. And by learning on the job, you get amazing experience plus nationally recognised certification that will look great on your CV.
Tailored to industry
All our MA courses are developed to fit the needs of their specific industries – making them highly popular with employers who work with us to get the best, most enthusiastic students to join them.
With an MA, you’ll get to work with people who want to work with you. We join forces with local and national employers to develop and run our apprenticeship programmes. So, as you make your way in the world of work, you will develop all the skills, accreditations, qualifications, and attitudes employers seek.
Pre-apprenticeship courses
If you don’t get a Modern Apprenticeship at your first attempt, don’t be disheartened. You may be best served coming to college to study for a year, making sure you are ready for your next MA application.
Studying on a full-time basis can often help you to further develop your knowledge and skills, providing you with an interview opportunity and great experiences to put on your CV.
Our partnerships and close links with industry also mean there are lots of opportunities for work experience and the chance to get invaluable hands-on practical experience in actual work settings. All of which helps make your dream job a reality through Fife College.
