Apprenticeships

An apprenticeship is the recognised way people are trained in a craft trade or profession. Apprentices are employees. An apprenticeship provides on-the-job training with an employer. It usually alternates between off-the-job training in an education centre and on-the-job training at your employer's workplace. An apprenticeship generally lasts for 2 to 4 years, during which time the apprentice will spend different periods in off-the-job training.
