The Ministry of Defence (the Authority) is the largest employer of Apprentices in England, with circa 8,000 gaining an apprenticeship every year. This requirement is for Contractors to deliver the L3 Pharmacy Technician (ST0300) apprenticeship, specifically for up to 10 apprentices per year.

These students are returned to the Services fully trained and licenced to practise. The new requirement will be for similar model of secondment to the NHS Trusts, within 2 hour of Lichfield.
