Apprenticeship Schemes in Saddlery

Off the job training:

The Saddlery Training Centre can deliver off the job training to support apprentices enrolled on ‘The Worshipful Company of Saddlers Millennium Apprenticeship Scheme’ or other forms of apprenticeship.

Our method of delivery:

As apprentices are likely to be based in all parts of the UK, we have found the best method of delivery is for apprentices to attend our centre for an intensive week of training every 10 weeks (5 weeks per year).

This off the job training allows us to support apprentices whilst they work towards gaining City & Guilds qualifications in Bridle, Saddle and Harness Making at Levels 2 and 3. The choice of qualifications will be for the employer and apprentice to agree.

In between training weeks, apprentices will follow an Action Plan requiring them to practice the skills they have been taught and to develop a Portfolio of Associated Knowledge.

Apprentices enrolled on the Millennium Apprenticeship Scheme are required to achieve the City & Guilds Diploma in Saddlery at Level 2 in Bridle, Saddle and Harness Making and the City & Guilds Diploma in Saddlery at Level 3 in Bridle and Saddle Making.
