Course description
PLEASE NOTE: As this apprenticeship is work-based it can be delivered across our college regions. Please enquire for details.
Our cycle maintenance apprenticeships are work-based training programmes for bike mechanics designed around the needs of the cycle trade that lead to nationally recognised qualifications (such as NVQ’s and Cytech accreditation).
These apprenticeships are the only training schemes available that include Cytech certification as part of the programme. On completion, you will become a fully trained professional bike mechanic.
The broad purpose of the occupation is to build, repair and service all kinds of bicycles – for example road, mountain, hybrid, recumbent, disabled adapted, electric and other human powered road and off-road vehicles.
Suitability - Who should attend?
To become an apprentice, you need to be living and working in England (contracted for at least 30 hours per week), be aged 16 or over and not in full-time education. That means you need a full-time job, with an employer who is willing to support your training throughout the apprenticeship.
