    I did an apprenticeship, and I had to find a job, then apply for the training. You are classed as being employed, as you will be required to work full time, and then to be released to college at arranged times. Therefore, the benefits agencies will process you as a worker not student, on a low wage.
    If you are serious about it, then I suggest you act fast as after the age of 24 the government no longer fund you, and the employer would have to pay your fees (and understandably most companies are reluctant to do this).

    Im applying this week all being well. Thank you, YOuve been very helpfull :)
