Know Your Options

- Stay with the Company you’re doing your Apprenticeship with

Are the company you’re currently working for recruiting? Have you asked whether they’d be interested in keeping you on when your Apprenticeship ends? The company have invested a lot of time in helping you gain the experience and skills needed for you to learn the job, it’s more than likely that if they have a position to fill they’d like to keep you on. If you’ve shown you’re a hard worker, determined and punctual then you’ll have been an asset to the team – why would they not want to keep someone like that on?

- Continue onto a Higher Apprenticeship
