Entry Requirements

There are no formal prerequisite qualifications that you must have prior to undertaking this qualification.

Fees & Funding

Apprenticeships are fully funded for most learners and employers — meaning there’s no cost to the learner and often no cost to the employer either.

✔ No upfront fees for learners
✔ Government-funded training
✔ Paid employment while you study

How It Works
Apprenticeships are funded by the UK Government through the Apprenticeship Levy or co-investment scheme. If the employer is a small business (with a wage bill under £3 million), the government typically pays 95%–100% of the training costs.

- Learners do not pay anything for their training
- Employers may pay nothing or just 5% of the course cost
- Employers also benefit from government incentive payments for hiring an apprentice

All apprenticeship training at Debut Academy is delivered by qualified tutors and includes workplace support, off-the-job training, and regular progress reviews.

Am I Eligible?
- To qualify for an apprenticeship, you must:
- Be aged 16 or over
- Be living in England
- Not be in full-time education
- Have the right to work in the UK
- Be employed or starting a job relevant to your chosen apprenticeship (We'll help match you with a suitable employer if you don’t already have one.)

How to Apply
- Choose your apprenticeship and apply online or speak to our team
- Secure an apprenticeship job with an employer (we can help with this!)
- Complete your enrolment and begin your training

You’ll receive:
- A wage while you learn
- Support from a tutor and assessor

Already Employed?
