What is an apprenticeship?
An apprenticeship is a paid job where the employee will work for 80 per cent of the time and gain a qualification for the other 20 per cent. It enables young people to leave school and complete a qualification while also being paid a salary and gaining invaluable experience in the working world. Certifications range from Level 2, which is equivalent to GCSEs, all the way to Level 7, which is bachelor/master’s degree level.
