There is a shortage of young people entering this sector with an interest in and an aptitude for cultural heritage. Employers are seeking to widen the pool of potential new recruits into cultural heritage and to create an alternative entry and progression route for the sector.
Employers are particularly interested in those who show a keen interest in working in the sector and have an interest in cultural heritage, museums and collections.
Applicants may have achieved the Level 3 Apprenticeship in Cultural and Heritage Venue Operations or other relevant qualifications, or may have prior experience that demonstrate the above.
However, training providers and employers will use initial assessment to ensure that applicants have a fair opportunity to demonstrate any interests or abilities. Programmes will then be tailored to meet individual needs, recognising any prior qualifications and/or experience.
