Why do an Advanced IT Apprenticeship?
One of the most significant skills gaps in ICT in London is the development and implementation of IT systems and services – so if you enrol on the Advanced Apprenticeship, your chances of getting a great job and a career at the cutting edge are high.
What training will I receive?
With the Advanced Apprenticeship, you’ll extend your existing knowledge of industry standard software packages to advanced level, including Windows, Word, Outlook, Excel, PowerPoint and Access. You’ll work towards an ITQ (Information Technology Qualification) at level 3, the equivalent of 2 or more A levels and will also take a level 3 Certificate in ICT Applications.
You'll understand how to troubleshoot problems with hardware and software, diagnose and fix faults and give technical advice and guidance to others. With your advanced knowledge of the Microsoft Office applications, you’ll be able to support users of industry standard software.
You'll also learn other Key Skills that are essential for career progression, including Communication and Application of Number, depending on your prior GSCE achievements.
How long does the Apprenticeship take?
Our IT User Apprenticeships normally take up to 9 months. You'll attend training sessions at Information Horizons approximately once a month and will receive support in the work place from a qualified assessor throughout your Apprenticeship.
