Description
General engineering and manufacturing operatives are found in environments supporting, for example, production, maintenance, assembly of components and systems, machining operations, fabrication and welding and additive manufacturing functions. Foundation apprenticeships introduce skills for a range of jobs in a sector, and provide general skills for work. After a foundation, apprentices can specialise and do a standard level 2 or 3 apprenticeship. Employers get an incentive payment for foundation apprenticeships, as well as government funding for training and assessment costs.
