As an apprentice, you'll spend your time onsite at HM Naval Base Devonport, attending virtual training sessions, and receiving onsite visits from our training provider to assess your progress.

You'll be enrolled in a finance-focused course and assigned a dedicated study tutor. The course covers a wide range of topics, including software, costing, and bookkeeping, with end-of-topic exams every few months.
These exams contribute to your overall grade at the end of the year.
