The Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust is inviting people of all ages to discover exciting career opportunities at its Apprenticeship Careers Fair, taking place in Exeter on Tuesday 10 February, from 5.00pm to 7.00pm.

Held as part of National Apprenticeship Week, the event is open to school, college and university students who are exploring future career options in healthcare and the qualifications needed to achieve them. It also welcomes career changers, those returning to practice, or anyone looking for a new challenge within their current profession.

With more than 350 different careers available across the organisation, the Royal Devon offers far more variety than many people might expect. Opportunities range from podiatrists, electricians, administrators to pharmacy technicians, operating department practitioners, nurses and many more.

One of the Royal Devon’s current apprentices, Heidi Noble, Early Years Educator Apprentice, shared her experience: “I feel incredibly fortunate to have secured my apprenticeship at First Steps, an Outstanding-rated nursery. I have learned so much on the job while working towards a qualification and have been supported throughout. I’ve been made to feel very much part of the team, and the experience I’ve gained has been invaluable to my development.”

Apprenticeships offer the opportunity to earn while you learn, combining academic study with hands-on, practical experience. Courses are delivered by the Royal Devon or in partnership with leading universities and colleges, many of which will be represented at the event to offer advice, answer questions and provide guidance.

The Royal Devon Apprenticeship Week Careers Fair will be held at the RILD Building, Royal Devon & Exeter Hospital (Wonford), Barrack Rd, Exeter, EX2 5DW on Tuesday 10 February, people are invited to visit between 5:00pm and 7:00pm.
