FIND AN APPRENTICESHIP

As Kelly discovered, it is well worth considering an apprenticeship. Log on to the national apprenticeship site (getingofar.gov.uk) where we found 20,567 apprenticeships. The website Not Going to Uni (notgoingtouni.co.uk) has 3,125 apprenticeships and has lots of information on vocational learning, as well as interview and CV tips. Check out the National Careers Service at nationalcareersservice. direct.gov.uk. Here you can explore different careers, look at education possibilities, or even start your search for work. You could also consider Open University (open.ac.uk) where you study for a degree online in your spare time. To follow in Kelly’s footsteps check out gsk.com/ apprenticeships. They have more than 10 different apprenticeship opportunities in the UK which are a combination of Advanced, Higher and Degree Apprenticeships. Disciplines range from manufacturing and IT to supply chain and project management.

CLEARING SYSTEM

Clearing can help people without a university or college place to find suitable vacancies on higher education courses. If you are flexible about where you go and you have reasonable exam results, there is still a good chance you could find a course to suit you. The moment you have your grades get online at ucas.com and they will guide you towards contacting universities and colleges.
