British Airways is to launch a programme to recruit more than 2,000 cabin crew in 2019.
Successful candidates with no prior cabin crew experience will train through the airline’s new cabin crew apprenticeship programme, getting their career off to a flying start.
After completing an intense cabin crew training course at British Airways’ Global Learning Academy, apprentices will continue their learning journey in the air and on the ground.
The programme will see them gain qualifications in English, maths and digital skills, access to a dedicated mobile app to track their progress and continuous development coaching from a certified apprenticeship coach.
The airline’s initiative reflects the government’s push to increase and enhance the number and quality of apprenticeships offered in the UK, to improve core skills and the quality of training offered.
