Have you the passion to be an Early Years Officer Modern Apprentice?

Early Years Officer Modern Apprenticeships with Fife Council will be reopening for applications on 15^th January 2024.

There are now over 260 early years officers either in training, or having completed their training who are now in employment. This extremely successful, hands-on training allows apprentices to learn on the job. This gives them a greater knowledge of the requirements of the post while enabling them to learn from highly skilled and professional nursery staff.

Fife Council needs people from a whole range of backgrounds and experience to create a team. If you have decided to change direction in your working life or you have been away from working life for a while, this is an opportunity open to all.

Spokesperson for Education, Cllr. Cara Hilton said, “Following the success of the training offered over the last few years, we’re delighted to be able to offer more of these rewarding apprenticeships. This is a very satisfying career that makes a real difference to children’s lives.

“The apprenticeship scheme allows people to gain valuable experience on the job and develop new skills. At the same time, they gain essential SVQ qualifications which opens up a range of new career opportunities.”

Apprenticeships in this intake will operate on a 52-week contract.
