Apprenticeships are really for those who are already employed and wanting to learn the trade they're in, altho some providers offer in-house apprenticeships, they are costly and getting few and far between especially if its a trade that requires practical skills with tools/materials etc.
That doesn't sound good for me. I just finished a foundation course in Graphic Design, which I hated. So now I'm trying to find an Apprenticeship in a bodyshop, so I can learn a trade.
