A first wave of trainees to complete Specsavers’ new optical apprenticeship scheme have now graduated – with each securing permanent positions.

Specsavers now has 200 apprentices enrolled in its programme with a further 100 anticipated to start in England throughout the rest of this year. Those who complete the programme may then have the opportunity to train to become dispensing assistants through Specsavers’ externally-accredited Level 3 and Level 4 Certificates in optical dispensing.
