An apprenticeship offers you the opportunity to gain ‘real world’ experience and develop your expertise in your chosen field.

Typically, an apprentice will split their time 80/20 between work and study. Unlike work experience, an apprenticeship is a legitimate job that requires a legal contract of employment, annual leave and a salary. There is a whole host of benefits to choosing the apprenticeship route, and we’ve narrowed it down to this 5 key factors:

1. Gain hands-on experience

Since you will be working as part of a team of experienced professionals for the majority of your apprenticeship, you will have the opportunity to widen your skillset and benefit from hands-on experience.

And above all, you will be able to learn from your colleagues on a day-by-day basis and support your professional development.

2. Benefit from support systems and learning aids

Apprenticeships offer a much higher level of support than regular jobs, and your employers will be there to help guide you through your career journey.

They will give you the support you need to progress, whether that’s answering role-related questions or providing useful resources to better your studies.

As well, apprenticeships shall be paired with college and a college assessor, who shall monitor and be on-hand with your studies.

3. Get paid to learn

Apprenticeships offer you the opportunity to get paid to learn, which is probably the most stand- out benefit. You will earn a, albeit basic, salary while you gain invaluable experience and top notch knowledge.

So, unlike university, you will not be left with a huge student loan to pay off over time but, instead, a strong professional skill set and knowledge foundation, as well as more money in your back pocket.

4. Gain industry-recognised qualifications

During your apprenticeship, you will gain industry-wide recognised qualifications, which can help validate your skills and knowledge, and help you demonstrate your substance to future employers. You can carry these qualifications with you throughout your career, which will improve your future job prospects.

5. Get accustomed to work life

An apprenticeship is a great way to bridge the gap between finishing education and kickstarting your career. For example, an apprenticeship will help you get a feel for a professional work environment and gives you the opportunity to brush up on your soft skills along the way.
