How do apprenticeships align to qualifications

From entry-level positions to senior roles, there is an apprenticeship route for everyone.

It’s important to know how the apprenticeship aligns with education and qualification levels. It’s also a great way to know how apprentices can advance through the different levels as they progress throughout their career.

Apprenticeship qualification levels span from level two (GCSE) to level seven (Masters), and they are categorised as Intermediate, Advanced, Higher and Degree apprenticeships.
