About Open Apprenticeships

One place to search apprenticeships in England and Wales, from level 2 through to degree level. Scotland and Northern Ireland run their own apprenticeship services, which this site does not cover yet. It is a personal project, not a commercial job board: no adverts, no paid placement, nothing sold on.

How listings are checked

The backbone is the government Find an Apprenticeship service, polled every six hours, alongside a growing set of employers' own career sites on the same schedule. Every open listing is re-confirmed on each pass and records the time it was last seen. An advert that disappears is checked once more on its own, then marked closed, even when that is before its advertised date.

Employers often close early once they have enough applications. So the closing date is always shown as advertised, never as a promise, and every listing links straight back to the original advert for you to check for yourself.

Privacy

You do not need an account to search. Signed out, apprenticeships you save are kept in this browser, on this device. Sign in and they move to your account, so they are there on every device.

An account holds your email, your saved searches (with any postcode you searched from), the apprenticeships you have saved, the ones you are tracking and the employers you have hidden, and nothing else. No third-party advertising. From the menu you can download all of it, or delete your account and everything in it straight away.

Who makes this

One person. Tino Muzovaka, because the existing services make an apprenticeship harder to find than it should be. The aim is something that is still here, and still accurate, next year.

Found a listing that is wrong, or one that should be here and is not? There is a report link on every apprenticeship page, and it goes to a person.
