UHI Perth are proud that our Modern Apprentices become valued and respected employees to our local business across the region. There are various options available.

Foundation Apprenticeships are available for school pupils in S5 and S6. They involve attendance at UHI Perth and work placement with a local employer, ensuring young people gain the skills employers need.

Modern Apprentices gain skills they need while working, between the employer sharing up-to-date skills and the assessor supporting observations, a recognised qualification can be gained, meaning they’ll be a real asset to your business.
