Provider overview

Rochdale Training has produced some of the best apprentices in the area, many of whom are now in significant and contributory positions within local companies. Apprentices can be taken at either a Level 2 or 3, dependant level of skills required to do the job.

Most of the necessary training for your apprentice will be undertaken within our purpose-built business training centre, in some circumstances this can be carried out in the workplace. The centre also contains a number of classrooms where theoretical knowledge is delivered. An apprenticeship usually takes 9-12 months to complete. An Advanced Apprenticeship around 12-18 months.

Our tutor/assessors regularly monitor the apprentice in our centre and in the workplace to ensure that their training progress is satisfactory and matching needs.
