I chose to complete an apprenticeship because I wanted to get out into the world and start working. Although I still attend college, it is a very different experience to school, one, which provides me with an independence I find rewarding and the sense that I am paving the way for my own success.
I chose to complete my apprenticeship with Gratte Brothers, as it was evident that they were a well-respected company within the industry and had an impressive turnover. Although these figures may not be important for every young person starting their career, for me it was vital

I chose to complete my apprenticeship with Gratte Brothers, as it was evident that they were a well-respected company within the industry and had an impressive turnover. Although these figures may not be important for every young person starting their career, for me it was vital to know how successful the company I was joining was, in terms of performance and opportunities.
I attend college on a ‘block release’ basis, which means I attend once a week. My day-to-day role for the remainder of the week has me on-site shadowing electricians, carrying out tasks alongside them and individually too. What I enjoy the most about my apprenticeship is that I am constantly learning new skills every day, whether they be electrical or interpersonal.
Once I have completed my apprenticeship, I hope that I will know which aspects of a project I enjoy most, whether they be practical or technical and I would then like to take advantage of the opportunities Gratte Brothers can provide and hopefully begin progressing towards project management.
