Urdd Gobaith Cymru

Urdd Gobaith Cymru's aim is to provide the opportunity, through the medium of Welsh, for the children and young people in Wales to become fully rounded individuals, developing personal and social skills that will enable them to make a positive contribution to the community.

This apprenticeship offers the opportunity for individuals over 17 years old to gain employment, professional experience and qualifications within the sports and outdoor activity sector. The Apprentices will take on full-time roles within our Sports department or our famous Residential centres. All apprentices will gain an NVQ qualification, within Level 2 Activity Leadership within the first year, and then can follow a NVQ Level 3 Sports Development qualification in their second year. All learners will also benefit from a variety of other sports and outdoor activity qualifications. 

At the 2018 Eisteddfod Brecon and Radnorshire, the Urdd announced that they are aiming to offer 100 apprenticeships by its centenary celebrations in 2022.
