General Apprenticeship Scheme
This four year course consists of a first year at Cornwall College gaining grounding in all aspects of yacht manufacture and maintenance. The apprentices then spend the next three years at the yard in their chosen trade gaining qualifications and experience. On successful completion of their course, the apprentices often choose to take up positions within the yard and become valued members of our staff.
The General Apprenticeship 2018 is now closed for applications. The next intake will be in 2019 and will be advertised in January 2019. In the meantime, details of the scheme can be found by downloading the flyer below.
Surface Finishing Apprenticeship Scheme
In 2005 a innovative new apprenticeship scheme was developed to focus on training local young people in the skills of surface finishing on yachts of all shapes and sizes. This specialist three year course consists of on-the-job training combined with classroom sessions to train the apprentices to achieve the perfect surface finish on our custom build and refit projects.
The Surface Finishing Apprenticeship is now open for applications with a closing date of 25 May 2018. This intake will start the course in September 2018. To apply please download and return the entry form below to apprentices@pendennis.com.
