IT Apprenticeships

pdf version

Formerly the Zenos programme, here you can learn all about the UK’s leading ICT Apprenticeship.


Since 2001 we have been helping thousands of young people to embark on an exciting and rewarding career in IT. Through 30 training centres across the country we teach, develop and support the future industry experts and work with hundreds of IT companies, from large multi-nationals to small and medium enterprises.

We have developed our Advanced Apprenticeship with the help of the IT industry to ensure that we deliver training that is relevant to the sector and of long-lasting benefit to the apprentice. Apprenticeships are a structured training programme that combines off-the-job training in the skills that are needed to do the job well, with real experience to consolidate the learning. As well as the Advanced IT Apprenticeship, our apprentices have the opportunity to pick up vital industry vendor qualifications from Microsoft, CompTIA or Oracle.

In 2010, Zenos was acquired by Pearson - the world's leading education company that helps to educate more than 100 million people globally. Now Pearson in Practice - the professional and technical training division of Pearson – we are part of a family that, as well as Apprenticeships in IT, also delivers training and development in creative and digital media, business administration, customer service, gas and renewables, construction and logistics – and we're even developing the first PR apprenticeship!

Although the name has changed, the legacy remains and we will continue to deliver training that is high-quality and employer driven.
