What is an apprenticeship

An apprenticeship is a paid job where you learn from experienced workers and take related classes. In a Registered Apprenticeship, training follows an approved plan and pay usually increases as skills grow. Not every career in this category uses apprenticeship, so ask the employer or program sponsor exactly how the training works and what credential it provides.
