There are a wide range of apprenticeships available in areas such as Dental, Nursing, Healthcare Science and more. Over the last few weeks, we have been highlighting different areas to show the fantastic apprenticeships that are available. This week on ‘Focus on Job Families’, we will be focusing on public health.
People working in public health may be employed in a range of different organisations. It is not uncommon for people to move across sectors as their careers develop and, increasingly, people may choose to be self-employed for some or part of their time.
The three main employing sectors in public health are:
- Public sector (local government, the civil service, the NHS and higher education)
- Private sector (private and independent companies, organisations and consultancy firms)
- Third sector (charities or social enterprises).
The Public Health Apprenticeship Standards printable shows a brief overview of the apprenticeship standards in this area.
