I wanted to learn a trade that would stay with me for life whilst also gaining a qualification, and with my apprenticeship I can do both.

I would recommend an apprenticeship to anyone. You earn whilst you learn and become responsible for your own future. It is a great opportunity.

I wanted a hands-on learning experience that would also give me a qualification and allow me to earn straight away.

My dream job is to do oil rig welding abroad so I’m going to gain as much experience as I can in my current apprenticeship job.

The work experience that I get whilst doing the apprenticeship puts me at an advantage to others who haven’t had any industry experience and opens up more opportunities for my future career.

I think doing an apprenticeship is good because it eases you into working and introduces you to the industry rather than just education.

I chose an apprenticeship because I know I learn best when I’m developing skills on the job.
