Roofing Apprenticeship Level 2

Summary

The Roofing Occupations Apprenticeship is for people who want to become a qualified Roofer, while laying the foundation for a successful career in the construction industry.

If you are interested in roofing, have a good head for heights and are able to follow technical drawings and building plans; this is a great course to kick start your career.

Over 90% of our construction apprentices are offered permanent positions by their employers once they have completed their apprenticeship.

An apprenticeship is a great way to gain a qualification and earn real money. At the end of the course, you will have a nationally recognised qualification and no debts to pay!

Upon successful completion, you are qualified as a junior roofer and can start working towards the Level 3 Diploma by enrolling in the advanced apprenticeship.

Once you are a qualified roofer, you may progress to the level of a supervisor or foreman.

In the future, you may be interested in studying further and complete a Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Construction Contracting Operations or Site Supervisory.
