Career Skills
The “career skills” element in a technical apprenticeship typically refers to developing skills and attributes that contribute to an apprentice’s overall professional growth and success in their chosen career. While the technical aspect of the apprenticeship focuses on acquiring specific job-related skills and knowledge, the career skills component aims to enhance broader skills that are valuable in any professional setting. The list of available career skills is vast and can be discussed either before or on joining the apprenticeship programme.
