Traineeships provide school leavers and young people with little or no experience in a working environment to get training and experience, including:
- learning in the workplace, focused on your area of interest, to help prepare you for an apprenticeship or job
- recognition of your learning with a formal traineeship qualification
- CV writing alongside learning what to expect in the workplace
- support to improve your English and maths if you need it
You’ll be working in a high-quality work placement with at least 70 hours of experience (spread out over 6-16 weeks dependant on your prior experience) and receive training from an experienced Trainer-Coach and various professionals based at your chosen yard. You won’t be employed, or receive a wage, but you will gain the skills needed to begin your career and develop your confidence in the workplace.
We can also tailor your traineeship to be discipline-specific in line with your future goals if this is desired; we work with many renowned dressage, showjumping and eventing employers.
