The 15 successful applicants will firstly enjoy a thorough two week induction, followed by the chance to try out different work areas aimed at giving a taste of at least two different aspects of what LOCOG do.

Once you have found out what goes on in departments such as Commercial Sponsorship, Technology, Games Services, Culture, Ceremonies and Education, Human Resources, and Brand and Marketing, the trainees will work to select an area that suits them the best.

As well as learning new skills from world-class people, the trainees will study with a local college, so they can gain a recognised NVQ qualification.  The current group of 10 Get Ahead trainees are all currently studying at part time at Hackney Community College as Level 3 Business Administration Apprentices. 

The closing date for applications has now been extended to Saturday 19 June. For further information about the programme, including details on how to apply please click here.
