Yes i can do an apprenticeship in Level 4

I did an Apprenticeship to become a System Engineer.

Is a System enginner someone who Builds/Fixes computers ? If so, I have wanted to become one. Is the money good enough though?

No. Not really. Become an IT Technician to do that kind of stuff. And I make 22k/year at the moment.

Did it get you anywhere after completing it?

I started at 16 and 4 weeks after the Apprenticeship I was hired full time for a system engineering role. I'm 18 now so 2 years on and i'm still with the company. So yeah, i'm doing good.

University, get more qualifications. Apprentice ships are trash jobs the company will be paid more to hire you then what they pay you

More qualifications - More debt - No job. Seems fun.

the thing is if you do a apprenticeship it would be better since you would have a trade and there would always be work as an example say plumbing and after you can open your owe business

Hi Dude,

I just finished a 1 year apprenticeship in IT and it was great!

If you want to do it go for it! University is great but depending on what you want to do it can be hard to get a job when you've done all the hard work. I know a lot of people that have come out of a 3 year course and are working in Tesco (Nothing against Tesco of course).

If you do go ahead and do an apprenticeship keep your options open never suggest you are going to stay on with the company because they then would be more obliged to want you to stay on!

Good luck in what ever you decide to do! Message me if you want anymore info or advice.

I'm paying back at a rate i barely even notice. University is generally a better way of doing things, as some appreticeships (you must agree) are dreadful, misleading and poor.

I hear a lot of people getting told they'll be educated to degree standard, but they end up with a level 4 qualification, it's awful.

I work for an Web/Graphic design company and I was offered a full time job and it seems much more beneficial because you get used to rubbish pay then you get full pay which is a treat
