                                Apprenticeships are for everyone. Whether youโre just starting out or looking to get ahead in your current career an apprenticeship might be for you. ๐จโ๐ป *Earn as you learn:* apprentices are employees too, which means you'll get a salary while gaining work experience. ๐ท *No student loans:* apprentices donโt pay tuition fees and arenโt eligible for student loans, so thereโs no student debt to worry about. Youโre still entitled to student discounts though and can get an NUS card. ๐ทโโ๏ธ *Something for everyone:* from hair and beauty to construction, or creative and digital to health and science, there are over 700 apprenticeships to choose from. ๐ฌ๐ง *Nationally recognised training:* you'll get training thatโs recognised and valued by employers throughout England and the UK. TLDR, apprenticeships are a great choice at any age.
