HR Support, Apprenticeship

As the business landscape continues to evolve and adapt, the role of Human Resources has become increasingly vital in shaping the success of organisations. If you are a motivated individual with a passion for people and a desire to contribute to the strategic growth of a company, then embarking on an HR Support Apprenticeship can be a rewarding and fulfilling career choice. This apprenticeship will equip you with the skills and knowledge necessary to thrive in this dynamic field. You will develop a comprehensive understanding of HR functions, policies, and practices while supporting the HR team in their mission to cultivate a positive work environment, attract top talent, and optimise employee performance.

An apprenticeship in Human Resources is an excellent starting point for anyone interested in pursuing a career in this field. It provides a unique opportunity to acquire industry-specific qualifications and valuable hands-on experience while earning a salary. You’ll have the chance to work closely with experienced professionals in the HR industry, meaning you’ll gain practical skills that make you highly employable and give you a head start in your career.

When you study with us you will automatically join our Business Career Excellence Hub, which is endorsed by leading employers who are actively involved throughout your whole training programme. Through guest lectures, company visits, work experience and recruitment events, you will have unrivalled access to potential employers – that means invaluable industry insight and numerous networking opportunities. You’ll study in purpose-built classrooms, designed to enhance your learning experience, and you’ll benefit from a wide range of facilities including our new boardroom and business suite. Your mentors will be experienced tutors and assessors who have worked in reputable firms and run their own businesses. They will guide you through your study programme and placement, and ensure you’re fully prepared for your next steps after college.
