Foundation Apprenticeships

West College Scotland is delighted to be working in partnership with Skills Development Scotland to deliver a number of exciting Foundation Apprenticeships for S5 & S6 pupils in our local schools.

A Foundation Apprenticeship will take an S5 pupil two years to complete, and is the same level of learning as a Higher (SCQF level 6). As pupils are working towards their qualification they will spend time out of school at college and with a local employer. We also offer shorter duration delivery models for S6 pupils.

Look and see the progression opportunities available to College or University.

There is a wide range of options available for example our Foundation Apprenticeship in Advanced Manufacturing Engineering which allows you to take on real-world research challenges for industry. Click here to find out more at National Manufacturing Institute Scotland.
