1. Practical hands-on experience – Learn the right skills in a real work environment. An apprenticeship allows you to acquire valuable transferable skills and experience in your chosen sector. It improves your CV and employability once you’ve finished training.
2. Earn while you learn – You’ll have the opportunity to earn a salary and enjoy on-the-job training. As your experience grows, your wage will increase, and you will receive the same benefits as other employees.
3. Guidance and support – You’ll have access to a wide array of support. From working alongside experienced people in your workplace to specialist trainers from your apprenticeship training provider. They’ll be there to help you gain the skills and knowledge you need to succeed.
4. No debt – There are no tuition fees! The average UK student loan debt is approximately £45k+. But as an apprentice, your employer pays for your training and also pays you a salary. You’ll start a professional career in the industry of your choosing with a means to progress and take further training.
5. Professional qualification – You can gain a nationally recognized, professional qualification. An apprenticeship allows you to develop the necessary skills and experience needed to grow your career.
