A huge Forrit welcome to our latest Graduate Apprentice Developers, Daniel and David, who started this week! This August marks nine years since we began our Forrit Apprentice Scheme, for which we’ve previously won an Scottish Apprenticeship Award for our dedication to developing tech talent. Life as a Graduate Apprentice at Forrit features an exciting mix of formal study and cross-team work experience. Those joining often start their journey working alongside our QA team, building up their skills, confidence and knowledge base before later specialising in a role in either web development, Security or QA. We’ve long championed our Apprentices and their development, offering them a working environment conducive to studying hard, discovering their passions and developing their skills. Just ask the six past Apprentices who have graduated and are still onboard the Forrit rocketship and the six still studying and working with us! Daniel and David, we’re excited to have you on this journey with us. #TechCareer #ApprenticeshipScheme #ApprenticeDevelopers #ForritApprenticeshipScheme
