Without my apprenticeship, I wouldn’t be where I am in my career today. Not only did I get paid during my training, I learned so much from the course as well as my employer. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending engineering apprenticeships to anyone, every day is different in manufacturing and engineering, you never get bored.”” name=”Jessica Tozer”]
