What does an apprenticeship actually entail? What are the advantages and disadvantages (because every job comes with both)? Is it something you can develop a passion for? If you’re going to nd and keep a career, you need to know what’s in store and whether it’s something you want to do.

This is why Success Stories highlight particular apprenticeships and show what apprentices who’ve done or are doing them really think. Young people from different backgrounds and across sectors reveal why they chose their apprenticeship, what they’ve gained from it, and what you can do to enjoy the successes they have.
