Aged 16-24? Want a career in the Arts?

The deadline for receiving applications for the 2010 Creative Apprenticeship scheme has closed. Please watch this space for future opportunities.

January - December 2010 Tate Liverpool will welcome two new Creative Apprentices to the gallery:

• Creative Apprentice: Learning (Level 2 VRQ Community Arts Management)
• Creative Apprentice: Operations and Visitor Services (Level 2 VRQ Cultural and Heritage Venue Management)

Creative Apprenticeships are for anyone aged 16-24 who has a passion and enthusiasm for the arts and would like to gain invaluable work experience, career counselling and transferable skills but does not have any qualifications higher than Level Three (e.g. degree). Creative Apprentices receive paid, on-the-job training as well as walking away with a formal qualification at the end of the 12-month programme.

Successful applicants will work full time at Tate Liverpool January - December 2010, attending Liverpool Community College for one day a week to complete the Level 2 Certificate in Creative and Cultural Practice.

This exciting scheme is part of the national Creative Apprenticeships scheme devised by Creative & Cultural Skills and will pave the way for thousands of young people to access previously out-of-reach careers within the creative and cultural industries.

These apprenticeships are supported by funding from the Museums, Libraries and Archive Council (MLA).
