All in one place

One of the standout benefits of our apprenticeship is the opportunity to learn from expert coaches who are seasoned professionals in the field. 

These mentors bring a wealth of knowledge and practical experience, providing invaluable guidance and hands-on training. Unlike traditional classroom settings, the learning is immersive, allowing apprentices to observe, ask questions, and receive direct feedback from industry veterans. 

This coaching not only helps in mastering the technical skills required for the job but also imparts insights into industry best practices, work ethic, and professional development. The relationship built with these expert development coaches can be a lasting one, offering ongoing support and networking opportunities throughout your career.

Apprenticeships offer the unique advantage of training with real employers, providing a seamless transition from learning to working. 

This means that the skills and knowledge you acquire are immediately applicable in a real-world context, making you job-ready from day one. Working alongside experienced colleagues in a professional environment allows you to understand workplace dynamics, organizational culture, and industry standards. 

Being employed by a real company means that your efforts contribute to actual projects and business outcomes, which can be incredibly motivating and rewarding. This real-world experience not only enhances your resume but also gives you a competitive edge in the job market. 

Creative Alliance offers a unique curriculum for Apprenticeship training aimed at the Creative, Digital and Marketing sectors. As part of your “off the job” training with us you will be doing: 

  • 121 training that is tailored to you and your job role 
  • Seminars that are industry standard teaching and updated each year. 
  • Assignments and Projects that are embedded into your role at your job. 

Our curriculum style is called the Spiral Staircase, which is about slowly going up in your field while having multiple supports around you to make sure you get there. There is more information about the Spiral Staircase here.

An apprenticeship provides robust support systems designed to help you succeed at every stage of your journey. 

We have a dedicated external support system to help with mental health, disability and learning difficulties that you may need to ensure success in your apprenticeship. 

We also provide additional workshops with our Growth Programme, this involves seminars around financial management, masterclasses in different industries, professional development and career progression. 

The prospects after completing an apprenticeship are often very promising and can lead to a wide array of career opportunities. 

85% of our apprentices are offered permanent positions by their employers upon completion of the program, recognising the value of their practical experience and developed skills. Even if you choose to seek opportunities elsewhere, the combination of hands-on experience and formal qualifications significantly enhances your employability. 

This makes you a strong candidate for advanced roles and higher earning potential in your chosen field. Furthermore, the skills and credentials gained through an apprenticeship can provide a solid foundation for further education and career advancement, whether that means pursuing higher-level apprenticeships, enrolling in college or university programs, or obtaining additional certifications.
