The communications and media industries produce a huge range of communications that we see, read and use everyday.

A wide range of roles are available. Find out out more about the different Career Pathways in this section of our website.

Please note: to undertake workplace training in these industries, you do need to be employed.

Modern Apprenticeships

Modern Apprenticeships, aimed at 16-21 year olds, are a great way for young people to get on-the-job training while getting paid and studying towards an internationally recognised National Certificate apprenticeship. Modern Apprenticeships usually take three years to complete, although this timeframe can vary, depending on which training programme is chosen. For more information about the scheme, visit the Modern Apprenticeships website - see Related Links on the right-hand side of this page.
