Guidance for apprentices during the outbreak of COVID-19

If you're a Modern or Graduate Apprentice, you should follow the guidance of your learning provider (college, university, or training centre) along with the advice of your employer.

If you have been made redundant due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, we are here to help. Contact our PACE team on 0800 917 8000.

Foundation Apprentices or their parents or carers should follow school guidance for questions related to work placements, colleges or learning providers. 

Please read our COVID-19 FAQs for regular updates. You can also visit our sister site, My World of Work, for employment and redundancy support.
