An introduction to apprenticeships Parents 2017/18

Understanding apprenticeships What are apprenticeships? What are the different levels? How do they compare to full time university ? Where can I find out more?

What are apprenticeships? Main components + = Aged 16+ A real job with a real employer Paid a salary Qualifications and experience 20% of time is off-the-job Contract of employment, holiday, sick pay Support from a training provider 1 – 4 years

Levels of apprenticeship Levels 2 - 7

What will I earn? Ask the audience a question: Does anyone know what apprentices are paid? (Typically you will get lots of different responses) Ok, so the first thing to remember is that … as an apprentice, you get paid a salary! Presenter click for animation Many people think that apprentices are low-paid, and this can be true, depending on the employer. Legally, an employer must pay an apprentice the National Minimum Wage for apprentices which is currently £3.50 per hour. This is lower than the normal National Minimum Wage, but it recognises that some people will be going into their first job with no experience at all. The good news is that lots of employers pay a lot more than the National Minimum Wage for apprentices. The average wage for apprentices is £170 per week which is a great starting salary for someone just leaving school. Some apprenticeship schemes in big organisations have a starting salary of £18-20k. It’s important to remember that if you see an apprenticeship you’re interested in, don’t be put off by the pay if it’s low: there’s room for progression and working your way to the top of an organisation. Local info: Partners might want to display local opportunity pay rates or adjust this message depending on the local area. Another common myth is that once you’ve completed your apprenticeship, your employer will let you go. This isn’t true. The majority of apprentices (around 90%) stay in employment. If they do change companies, it’s usually because they’re able to compete for a better job, perhaps with more pay or more responsibility. £3.70
