OGTAP Apprenticeship SchemeThe Oil & Gas Technical Apprentice Programme (OGTAP) is one of the UK’s most successful schemes. The 2020 OGTAP apprenticeship scheme is open for applications until 16th March 2020.
Since OGTAP started in 1998, around 2,000 people have successfully completed their apprenticeships and are now working for companies in the energy industry.
The scheme is co-managed on behalf of the sector by OPITO (the global skills organisation for the energy sector), and the Engineering Construction Industry Training Board (ECITB).
A series of films have been produced to help give you a better understanding of the oil and gas sector, the OGTAP scheme, and life as an apprentice on the road to an exciting career in the energy industry.
