This guide to apprenticeships for employers has been produced by Sara Whybrew, a consultant with extensive experience of apprenticeships in the creative and cultural sectors. It includes both general information about how all apprenticeships work and more specific details about the Level 7 Archivist and Records Manager apprenticeships. For a quick introduction to the Level 7 apprenticeships, please visit our ‘About the apprenticeships‘ webpage first.

Please note that these Level 7 apprenticeships are only available in England – there are different apprenticeship systems in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
