An apprenticeship is a career pathway that allows you to learn while gaining experience on the job. It is a job, with a salary and contract of employment, and it gives you the chance to study while you are working.
Available to those 16 and over, apprenticeships in science offer hands on experience, combined with at least 20% of your time in off-the-job learning at a college, university, training provider or within your workplace, away from day-to-day working environment and duties.
More information can be found on the Science Council website.
