Give a Young Person (and your creative team) a Break!
Apprenticeships have risen in reputation and popularity exponentially over recent years.
However within the thriving creative industries sector – creative agencies as well as marketing departments – there is currently a dearth of opportunity for these bright and ambitious individuals.
A unique partnership between the National Apprenticeship Service and the creative industries in Greater Manchester and Merseyside, Creative Break will redress this imbalance and generate vacancies in the creative industries for young people looking for an exciting career opportunity.
How? The Creative Break Apprenticeship Programme will recruit and train administration apprentices specifically for the creative industries. Creative Break apprentices will be given training in essential skills for a busy agency or marketing department such as telephone answering and Microsoft programmes. Creative employers can gain huge benefits to their business from employing an apprentice from as little as £5,000 per annum as part of this new Apprentice Training Association (ATA) initiative.
