Work-based learning
Lifetime offers a range of work-based learning (WBL) programmes – or apprenticeships – through which you will learn valuable new skills whilst enjoying all the benefits of paid employment.
Apprenticeships are nationally designed training programmes which are made up of a National Vocational Qualification (NVQ), key skills and other technical certificates specific to the active leisure industry – all of which are designed to help you perform better in your role, add value to your company and enhance your skills and knowledge. For more information on apprenticeships and NVQs follow this link.
Training for lots of different types of jobs within the active leisure sector are available from Lifetime through your employer, ranging from front office, team leadership and customer service to sales management, operations and leisure management. From fitness instruction and personal training to activity leadership and from housekeeping, professional cookery and food and drink service to hospitality supervision.
Our award-winning solutions reflect our forward-thinking approach to learning in the workplace where we tailor our programmes to meet the specific needs of individuals, the sector and the organisations.
We also work with some of the UK’s biggest brands as well as single site and regional operators – making Lifetime the no.1 in the training and assessment of work-based learning in the active leisure sector.
To be considered for WBL with Lifetime you must be employed in the industry and working for one of our clients. You will also need to be aged between 16 and 24, so long as you finish your training before your 25th birthday. This also applies if you are disabled and your entry has been delayed due to disability or health problems.
So, if you want to learn how to do a job, develop the skills an employer needs, gain nationally-recognised qualifications, and get paid, then work-based learning could be for you. Contact your employer to see what opportunities are available to you.
