We are delighted to announce that we’ve been appointed to deliver bespoke apprenticeship training for leading household brand, Halfords.
The new partnership, which commenced in January 2025, will see apprentices coming through our doors over the next year, initially on a Light Vehicle Technician Level 3 programme.
Apprentices, who will study at Emtec, part of our Ruddington campus, may also be fast tracked to qualify more quickly, if they demonstrate advanced technical ability.
As part of the agreement, Halfords has taken on a physical unit at Ruddington, with the option to be able to expand into further space to accommodate the growing programme.
Lindsey Smith, Assistant Principal at Ruddington campus, said:
“We are really pleased to have won part of the Halfords apprenticeship training provision. Emtec is a globally renowned provider of exceptional education and training, so it’s fitting that a national household name has trusted us to deliver their apprenticeship programme.
“We have already started welcoming apprentices through our doors and we look forward to building on this new relationship in the coming months and years.”
Daniel McCann, Head of Skills Development at Halfords, said:
“We are delighted to be partnering with Nottingham College to deliver bespoke apprenticeship training for our future technicians. Investing in the next generation of professionals is a key priority for us, and Nottingham College’s expertise in apprenticeship training makes them the ideal partner for this initiative.”
