Apprenticeships in Essex
South Essex College has an established history of providing quality Apprenticeship training across the Thames Gateway.
As the lead for NOVA, the fifth largest provider of work-based training in the country, we were named ‘Top Provider in the
Eastern Region’ for the recruitment of Apprentices by the National Apprenticeship Service.
Apprenticeships for School Leavers
