If you, or someone you know, is looking into apprenticeships but need more information, then join one of our apprenticeship open events held across the UK.

If you are in Year 11 or beyond, these open days are a fantastic opportunity to find out everything you need to know before making an application to our apprenticeship programmes for 2026.

During the event you'll have a chance to meet some of our current apprentices, as they share more about their experience so far during their apprenticeships. With representatives from across all levels of our business, attendees will gain insight into the brilliant opportunities open to those who join an apprentice one of our apprenticeship programmes.

We look forward to meeting you and for you to learn more about what we do here at BAE Systems.
