A JLR Advanced Apprenticeship gives you the opportunity to expand your knowledge by learning cutting-edge concepts and technologies at college and applying them to real-world projects. We’ll introduce you to the future of automotive technology, giving you the platform to make a meaningful impact on JLR and our customers.
This programme enables you to achieve your Level 3 apprenticeship and earn a vocational qualification relevant to your chosen field. The Level 3 Advanced Apprenticeship Creative - Engineering and Manufacturing Support Technician programme takes four years to complete and adheres to the Institute for Apprenticeships & Technical Education (IfATE) Engineering and Manufacturing Support Technician apprenticeship standard.
For more details, please visit the IfATE apprenticeship standard webpage As an apprentice, you will develop the Knowledge, Skills, and Behaviours (KSBs) outlined in the apprenticeship standard. These will be assessed during your End Point Assessment (EPA), where you will demonstrate the competencies and skills you’ve gained throughout the programme.
What to expect During your apprenticeship, you’ll spend a significant portion of your first year at Warwickshire College Group’s Trident College based in Warwickshire (CV34 6SW). Your typical hours at the training provider will be from 8:00 AM to 4.45PM Monday – Thursday and reduced hours on Friday's; you will receive a confirmed timetable upon joining us.
Here you’ll be assigned a Work Based Learning Manager (WBLM) and a JLR early careers cohort leader to support you throughout your apprenticeship journey. Year 1 – Foundation Phase In your first year, you'll focus on building your foundational knowledge of engineering and essential workplace competencies to ensure safety.
You’ll spend time in workshops developing practical skills such as welding, electrical installation, milling, and fault finding. You’ll also take part in regular plant placements where you’ll have the opportunity to apply these newly acquired skills in a real-world environment.
You’ll also begin studying your Level 3 BTEC qualification. Year 2 – Academic Knowledge and Skills Development In your second year, you’ll divide your time between your workplace and college, spending four days on plant and one day at Trident College each week.
During this time, you’ll continue your Level 3 BTEC qualification and put your academic knowledge into action while working on site. Year 3 – Academic Knowledge and Competence Development In your third year you will be based fully within the plant focusing on developing your skills beyond the basics and working on real-world projects on-site at JLR.
Year 4 – Continuation of Competence Development and End Point Assessment In your final year, you’ll complete your apprenticeship and prepare for your End Point Assessment, supported every step of the way by your Early Careers Cohort Leader and your WBLM.
This exciting programme is designed to help you build practical skills, deepen your technical knowledge, and develop key workplace behaviours like teamwork and problem-solving. For this apprenticeship you will be based in our Creative team. Rewards and benefits Our 2025 apprenticeship programme salary is £16,893.

You’ll also enjoy a generous holiday allowance, a discounted car purchase and lease scheme for you and your family, an excellent pension scheme and access to a wide range of deals and discounts from retailers and sports clubs.
