Purpose

– Examines the factors that have helped the Kwik Fit apprenticeship scheme to top honors in the latest Ofsted inspection.

Design/methodology/approach

– Provides details of the apprenticeship scheme and contains an interview with someone who has completed it successfully.

Findings

– Details the combination of classroom, training-workshop and in-center activity, with particular links between theory and practice.

Practical implications

– Shows that almost nine out of ten apprentices stay on at Kwik Fit at the end of their apprenticeship, and many participants progress to senior levels in the company.

Social implications

– Highlights the example of one female apprentice working in a male-dominated environment.

Originality/value

– Explains the workings of a “traditional” apprenticeship, with apprentices permanently full-time employed from the day they start.
