Train Shetland receives applications from school leavers and other individuals looking for vocational training and employment opportunities. We also receive requests from local employers seeking to recruit new trainees. We pass on copies of the completed application forms to employers and they contact applicants directly for interview.

We do not place trainees with employers. It is the employers who select their new employee. When we are notified by the employer of the trainee name and start date, we will arrange an induction meeting at the workplace and set out an individual learning plan for the trainee.
All submitted application forms will be retained on file (until 31/12/10) for distribution to employers as specific vacancies arise.

New For 2010: Due to new funding rules by Skills Development Scotland, all Modern Apprenticeship programmes are only available to those over the age of 16 and under the age of 20 years.

For the latest information about vacancies please do not hesitate to contact us. There is a vacany list at the bottom of this page. Recruitment is ongoing and this information is constantly changing.
