Choose a trade based on your existing technical subjects

Review your college results before deciding which route to select. A trade name alone does not tell you whether your subject combination qualifies. Use the branch form to compare your completed subjects with the relevant field. If your record uses different subject names, obtain clarification rather than treating an unrelated module as equivalent.

Make one considered application

The employer specifically warns that applying to multiple branches or trades will not improve selection. Compare the available forms first, identify the most suitable route and check your choice before submission. Keep a personal record of the branch, trade and submission date so that you do not accidentally apply twice while checking progress.

Prepare the documents and practical details

Open your CV and supporting files on another device if possible to check that they are legible. Your education section should make the completed technical subjects easy to identify. Use your own contact details and review required declarations carefully. The form requests personal information; enter it only through the official employer website, not a third-party messaging account.

Understand what the training offer does and does not establish

The programme describes a route towards trade competence, not instant qualification. Ask about assessments, attendance, the training agreement, pay and practical arrangements before accepting an offer. Do not assume a transport allowance, accommodation or automatic permanent employment. The overview contains an older intake subheading, so rely on the dated current form and confirm intake details during recruitment.

Submit using the appropriate branch form

Start at the official careers directory below and open your chosen apprenticeship form. Complete all mandatory fields, attach the requested documents and check your declaration before submitting. Save any confirmation. A successful form submission is not a selection result; continue with other suitable applications while awaiting feedback.

Frequently asked questions

Keep a separate checklist for your LH Marthinusen apprenticeships application so you can distinguish the employer’s stated entry requirements from your own preparation tasks. Record which trade interests you and check that your uploaded certificates show the relevant subjects clearly. Retain your application acknowledgement and use the employer’s own contact channels for clarification. These are practical suggestions, not additional selection conditions or a promise of acceptance.
