Apprenticeship Open Evening 2026

If you're aged 16+ and interested in training, re-training or upskilling through an apprenticeship, then join us on 25 February to learn more. You can even apply for apprenticeships on the night!

At our Apprenticeship Open Evening you can:

• Learn about how an apprenticeship works

• Explore the range of apprenticeships at GC
• Find out what kind of careers an apprenticeship leads to

• Dental Nursing
• Early Years and Education
• Engineering

... You can even apply for apprenticeship pathways on the night.

As well as a Welcome Talk from our Apprenticeships Team we'll be holding a Q&A Talk with some of our current and past apprentices to give you real insight into what life is like as an apprentice. They'll be on-hand to share their stories of everyday apprentice life. You can hear all about the projects they’ve worked on, and why they chose their apprenticeships.

Please note: We have different entry times available on the evening - please select the one that is best for you. The last talk from the Employer Training & Apprenticeships team will take place at 7:15pm.

* Only prospective apprentices need to register for the event - guests are welcome to attend too, but do not need to register
