Why Apprentices Choose NowSkills

NowSkills will give you the digital skills and business behaviours to succeed:

 
Since 2013, we’ve been dedicated to kickstarting the careers of aspiring digital and IT professionals. Our program has helped hundreds of apprentices, many of whom have advanced to senior leadership positions in the digital sector. Each journey to success began with a simple step: registering online and embarking on the path to a meaningful and rewarding digital career.

Why choose NowSkills for your IT apprenticeship

Choosing the right organisation for your IT apprenticeship in the UK is a crucial decision. With numerous colleges and independent providers vying for your attention, it’s essential to make an informed choice.

When evaluating potential training organisations, consider asking specific questions tailored to each provider. Keep in mind that you’re committing to a programme that could last between 15 to 24 months.

NowSkills offers fully accredited apprenticeships. With a Department for Education contract (UKPRN10040775), NowSkills ensures you receive the same government funding, impartial careers advice, and guidance as you would from a college, all at no cost to you.

We only deliver digital and IT apprenticeships

At NowSkills, digital apprenticeships are not just another option—they are our primary focus and passion. We are dedicated to leading in the digital space, continually striving to enhance our IT apprenticeships to ensure they are the best available.

Our training team is composed of technical experts who have real industry experience and a deep passion for their specialisms. Each member works exclusively within their field of expertise. For example, our infrastructure specialists and digital marketing trainers concentrate on their respective areas. This ensures that our apprentices receive the highest quality education from professionals who are truly knowledgeable and passionate about their subjects.

Technology careers are more than just “IT”

At NowSkills, we understand that the term “IT” is often used as a catch-all, but we recognize the distinct differences within various technology fields. Whether it’s Data Analysis, Digital Marketing, Cybersecurity, or other specialised areas, each presents unique career opportunities, skill requirements, and salary prospects. Our in-depth knowledge across these disciplines is what sets us apart as true specialists.

The skills and characteristics required for success in each area are just as varied. For example, the problem-solving and communication abilities needed in infrastructure roles are different from the creativity required in digital marketing. Similarly, a data analyst needs to be detail-oriented and comfortable working with complex datasets.

At NowSkills, we offer a wide range of courses and career opportunities, ensuring that you are placed in a role that fits your personality, skills, and ambitions. Our career guidance begins with your initial registration interview and continues throughout your apprenticeship, providing ongoing support to help you thrive in your chosen field.

Employers trust us with tech

An apprenticeship is a paid job that includes 20% off-the-job training, with employers covering your wages. Unlike other programs, employers do not receive a specific grant but instead use the apprenticeship system to either upskill their existing workforce or recruit and train new apprentices.

If you’re already employed, enrolling in an apprenticeship is relatively simple with your employer’s approval. However, if you’re seeking an employer to support your apprenticeship journey, NowSkills is here to assist you.

NowSkills has a well-earned reputation for its deep understanding of the digital sector. Employers trust us to introduce apprentices who are work-ready, well-suited for the roles, and genuinely eager to build careers in the digital industry. Achieving the right match between employer and apprentice is key to long-term success. Our employer engagement team plays a vital role in this process, carefully matching apprentices’ skills and personalities with the right job opportunities to ensure mutual success.

Employer led training

Once you’re enrolled in your apprenticeship, the emphasis is on your course, your progress, and your learning experience. This is where our tutors excel.

As a NowSkills apprentice, you’ll likely be engaged in a role that involves digital skills on a daily basis. This hands-on experience will quickly build your proficiency and set you on the path to becoming a digital professional. As you immerse yourself in technology each day, your expertise will grow, and it is at this stage that the specialised knowledge of our tutors becomes particularly valuable.

Stretching your knowledge

Your classroom learning, one-on-one tutor sessions, and mentor support are designed to deepen your knowledge and develop substantial new skills and behaviors. Our training team consists of sector specialists chosen for their in-depth expertise, rather than broad but superficial knowledge—something leading apprentice employers demand.

Employers who work with us know that NowSkills tutors bring both depth and passion to their roles, ensuring the success of their apprentices. Each member of our training team undergoes rigorous technical testing as part of our recruitment process and benefits from ongoing skills development. This commitment to excellence is why top employers frequently turn to NowSkills for new opportunities, which we are excited to pass on to you, helping to launch your digital career.
