Mencap
Mencap wants people with a learning disability to have the opportunity to experience the benefits that paid employment can bring, and they believe that apprenticeships play a vital role in making this vision a reality.
Apprenticeships can be well suited to people with a learning disability as they combine practical training on the job with study. An apprentice normally works alongside experienced staff in a company or organisation to gain job-specific skills. The apprentices we have supported are proof of how well this programme can work for people with a learning disability - some of them have even achieved a distinction!
