Just about to leave School or College?
Worried about what you’re going to do? Why not consider a career in local government? Working for your local council can be a rewarding and exciting experience and there are lots of opportunities to train while you work.
Getting some practical work experience before you leave school or college can be a really good idea. Not only will it help you develop skills and experience, which you can add to your CV, but it will also give you more of an idea about the kind of work you might like to do in future.
Lots of local councils offer work experience for school and college students in many different departments. After you have finished school or college, you may be able to apply for an Apprenticeship or similar trainee scheme with your local council.
Apprenticeships offer you the chance to earn and learn at the same time and give you the opportunity to study for a nationally recognised qualification.
