Apprenticeships are employment led programmes designed for young people aged 16-24. You will have a job where you will earn real wages and combine this with learning technical skills. You will also come to College usually for one day per week for off the job training and to learn underpinning knowledge.
The Apprenticeship in Hairdressing is made up of the following components; you must achieve all components to receive an Apprenticeship Award.
- NVQ Level 2 Hairdressing
- Key Skills Application of Number Level 1
- Key Skill Communication Level 1
- Employment Rights and Responsibilities
On completing the Apprenticeship in Hairdressing you will have the skills and knowledge that would be required of a junior stylist.

Is this course for me?
To succeed in an Apprenticeship programme you need to be focused on the career you have chosen; you might even want to gain some work experiance in your chosen field before you start your course. You will need to be prepared to work hard both within the workplace and at college so that you get the best out of the opportunities to learn.
Ideally you will have already found employment with an employer who is willing to support you through the Apprenticeship programme. If you haven't already found an employer then the College will support you in looking for suitable employment. You must be in employment in order to undertake an Apprenticeship programme.
Entry requirements for Apprenticeships are flexible. Practical skills count as well as your interest in the area of work you've chosen. You must be keen to work and keen to learn. Apprentices in Hairdressing would normally be expected to have 3 GCSE's at Grades A-C or equivalent such as an NVQ 1 in Hairdressing. You need to be able to stand for long periods of time while completing treatments.
How will I study?
You will normally attend College one day per week to learn the underpinning knowledge required for your framework components. Practical skills will be developed through a combination of study at College and of activities that you will undertake in your workplace.
Assessment will be via observation, written tests and assignments. An assessor from college will visit you in the workplace on a regular basis to carry out assessments for your NVQ award. You will be required to compile evidence for your NVQ portfolio in the workplace.
It is brought to your attention that although North Lindsey College will endeavour to obtain clients throughout the course, it is the learners' own responsibility to ensure they have enough models to obtain their qualification.
How will my progress be measured?
Your progress on the programme will be reviewed a minimum of every 10-12 weeks. This is normally done in your workplace. Targets will be set that reflect your individual needs and progress to date. Previous learning, training and experience can be taken into consideration.
Progression
On completion of an Apprenticeship your career prospects will have significantly improved and you can progress to technical or supervisory positions in the industry. You might also choose to progress to further study with Level 3 qualification in Hairdressing.
