Apprenticeships and work-based training offer excellent
opportunities for young people to earn money, gain skills and find
their career direction.
Stephen Jeffery is 18 and he is a Kent Success Apprentice who is
working as a Business Support Assistant said: "I knew I didn't want
to stay on at school, so taking part in an Apprenticeship was the
best way to get a qualification, learn new skills… and get paid at
the same time! For me it was the best of both worlds."
KEY's Head of Service, Mark Easton said: "When we're starting
out in the working world we won't all want the same things, for
some people more school, or even college just aren't the right
options. This week is an excellent opportunity for young people who
want to find a different direction and take control of their career
with an apprenticeship or work-based
training." |
