Apprenticeships, E2E and Private Training

TES1TES3TES4

Stockton Council's Tees Achieve service is contracted by Tees Valley Learning and Skills Council (LSC) to deliver Apprenticeship and E2E training programmes up to Level 3 and is the largest provider of work-based learning in the borough. 

Apprenticeships

We offer a wide range of Apprenticeships for young people:

  • Business Administration
  • Child Care
  • Care
  • Retail & Warehousing
  • Joinery
  • Maintenance Operations

We are able to offer free training to anyone between the ages of 16 and 24.  The training programme is an approved and nationally accredited Apprenticeship Framework including NVQ level 2 or 3. 

We can also offer any employee within your company aged 19 plus an NVQ level 2 qualification under the Train to Gain initiative, free of charge, over a maximum 12 month period, if they meet requirements.

Entry to Employment (E2E)

We also offer the Entry to Employment programme which is aimed at young people aged 16 to 18 who are not participating in any form of post-16 learning.

This scheme is designed to help young people develop their motivation and confidence, personal effectiveness and basic and key skills. The training offers a range of opportunities to gain vocational knowledge, skills and understanding. The aim is that the trainee will progress onto an Apprenticeship, further learning and/or a job.

Wages and Allowances

Learners receive the Educational Maintenance Allowance (EMA) of up to £30 per week and various bonuses.  Employed Apprentices receive a wage from the employing company and depending on the wage rate, may have to pay income tax and national insurance.

Training Services For Private Customers

For a very competitive cost we offer private training courses for NVQ level 2s and 3s to candidates who are not eligible to access Train to Gain or Apprenticeship courses.

We have consistently achieved high grades from our Awarding Bodies (City & Guilds and OCR) who quality assure the delivery of our qualifications and award certification.

Employment on trial

We have many young people who are interested in, and seeking employment who would be available for a 6 week trial period.  If they prove themselves within this period and you decide to offer them employment, the weekly wage requirement would be £95 for one year due to the young person studying towards an Employer Led Apprenticeship.
