HOW OUR APPRENTICESHIPS WORK

Fort Augustus & Glenmoriston Community Company, Glengarry Trust and Stratherrick & Foyers Community Trust run a joint apprenticeship scheme to support young people within these three community council boundaries.

The scheme is not intended to replace any existing schemes run by industry or through Skills Development Scotland, where support usually takes the form of course fees, costs of travel and accommodation when attending courses. Support is based on a three year apprenticeship and intends to cover the majority of salary costs of an apprentice in recognition of the fact that this is often a difficult cost for a small business. The Community Company administers the scheme on behalf of the three organisations.
