// Apprenticeships at DMA

Empowering the next generation through real-world experience

We believe in growing talent from the ground up. Our Apprenticeship Programme is designed to equip individuals with the practical skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to build successful careers in building services and facilities management.

Whether you’re interested in engineering, plumbing, construction & project management, or business administration, our apprenticeships offer a carefully balanced blend of on-the-job training, industry qualifications, and one-to-one mentorship.

How It Works

We work with a range of vetted training providers to deliver tailored apprenticeship pathways across multiple disciplines. Our internal team manages the enrolment process in collaboration with each college or provider.

Apprentices are typically required to complete an initial assessment in Maths and English before starting their course. In some cases, existing qualifications may be accepted in place of this assessment. Training is delivered both on-site and via college-based or virtual learning, depending on the course structure.

We receive regular progress updates from training providers, and our line managers maintain open communication with tutors to ensure each apprentice is supported throughout their journey.

A Holistic Approach to Development

Supporting our apprentices goes beyond technical training. Pastoral care is a key part of our programme, helping our young talent navigate their early careers with confidence and resilience. We foster a workplace culture where apprentices feel safe, valued, and heard, and have the emotional and professional support they need to thrive.
