Advanced Apprenticeships in Media Production

Some of the biggest names in TV have come together once again to offer thirty-six, 16-22-year-olds a unique opportunity to break into the business, after the continued success of the Advanced Apprenticeship in Media Production - the only one of its kind anywhere in the UK.

The 18-month Programme will begin in September 2009 and will run until March 2011, with each apprentice receiving training and all the experience needed to kick-start their career in the industry. In addition, participants will be able to gain two Level 3 qualifications while training.

Companies including the BBC, ITV Granada, Lime Pictures, Channel M and Sumners will again join forces alongside smaller companies such as Channel K, Shine North and Bellyfeel to back the Advanced Apprenticeships, giving young people the chance to work behind the scenes of the broadcasting industry.

The Advanced Apprenticeship in Media Production is open to 16-22-year-olds, living in the Northwest, and is designed specifically for people who wouldn’t usually get the chance to break into broadcasting.

Application to the Advanced Apprenticeship in Media Production is currently closed
