What are Apprenticeships?

For over a decade, Tees Active has been implementing a highly successful apprenticeship programme. This programme serves as a valuable pathway for individuals who have chosen not to pursue further or higher education and instead wish to embark on a career in the leisure industry through an Apprenticeship route. In collaboration with our trusted training provider, Lifetime Training, we offer a 15-month programme that provides individuals with the opportunity to engage in both on-the-job and off-the-job training.

If you are looking to kickstart your career and are considering an apprenticeship, Tees Active can help and support you to gain valuable experience in the leisure sector.
