07 #inspiringTALENT Earn while you learn with an Apprenticeship We offer many Apprenticeships from accounting, creative and digital media, through to retail, pharmacy and team leading and management. You can gain skills and qualifications, some of which go up to degree level, while working and earning. Apprenticeships give you the opportunity to gain on the job training, experience and qualifications that employers want and need. An Apprenticeship or going to university are equally prestigious routes to a great career and secure finances in the years ahead. Student secures career with Apprenticeship A former Apprentice from West Cheshire College is celebrating after securing a permanent job with leading glass manufacturer Encirc (UK). Michael Crotty, 23, from Wallasey, has recently completed a four-year Apprenticeship in Engineering at the Chester- Student secures Head Chef role at ski resort based manufacturer. After impressing his employers with his skills and enthusiasm, he secured a permanent position as a Maintenance Engineer. Michael said: “The Apprenticeship was great as I got to combine hands-on work experience with theory work. “I learnt so much from my Apprenticeship and it has been the best way to kick-start my career. I have a lot of friends who are at university and I feel like I’m in a better position than them thanks to the Apprenticeship. “I’m delighted that I have secured a permanent role at Encirc (UK) and I’m excited for the challenge that my new role will bring me.” A hospitality and catering student from the College will be jetting off to Europe for the ski season as Head Chef at the Austrian ski resort, St Anton. George Wheeler, 22, from Chester, who completed his City & Guilds Diploma in Professional Cookery course in November, said: “I had to go to London for the interview with Flexiski. We did various group tasks and we also had to make a cold starter - I made a mackerel pâté and beetroot and orange salad. He added: “I’ve done both an Apprenticeship and a Level 3 course at the College so I’ve really built up my experience and qualifications. “It’s such a big opportunity but I’m really looking forward to it. I’m a big fan of skiing so this really is my dream job.” Great employers. Great opportunities. Great prospects. Apprenticeships deliver.
