Apprentices
Current and past apprentices explain how their Apprenticeship has benefited them and their career, and why they would recommend Apprenticeships to others.
"I’m with Apprenticeships because it's the ideal next step in my career. It’s a great way to learn because you are working with different skilled people who can help you to build up your knowledge. It's the best decision I ever made as it's opened so many doors.”
Anton Samy - Apprentice, John Doyle Construction Ltd
Stuart Gould - Apprentice, D-Drill (Master Drillers) Ltd
"I’m with Apprenticeships because I can learn on the job. It’s good to be part of a team working on lots of interesting projects. My confidence has grown and I’m earning a wage whilst I train which is an added bonus.”
Mitchell Sharp - Apprentice, Wilson & Wylie Contracts Ltd
"I’m with Apprenticeships because it’s more than a qualification, it’s experience too which is more valuable.”

"My advice to anybody thinking of a career in the Creative Media Industries is – don’t dismiss an Apprenticeship, look into it as an alternative to formal study. On my Apprenticeship, I am being trained. I am having things explained and taught to me that I would have had no chance at all of accessing if I had stayed at school. I am being encouraged to develop independence and I am growing more confident every day."
Jordan Shahin - Digital Medai Apprentice, Two Four Group
