IT Solutions

Enhance your business’s IT systems with an apprentice

How could an IT Solutions Apprentice help your business?

Whilst the technology market is thriving, the industry is also faced with a very clear and present skills gap. IT support is the cornerstone of digital industry. Without it, organisations cannot function.

Yet despite this, 48% of IT companies have declared they are under-resourced in their technical support departments.

At althaus, we teach IT Solutions apprentices to analyse, diagnose and resolve problems, making systems faster and more efficient.
