There are a number of advantages to taking an apprenticeship, instead of studying full time at college:

☛ Your learning group will be much smaller than at college. This means that you will have much more one to one time with whomever is teaching you.

☛ You will earn money whilst you are learning key skills.

☛ You will gain fantastic practical experience from the front line of the hair salon.

☛ You will hugely increase your employability, as you'll have more industry experience than if you had spent your time learning at college. You are also more likely to gain employment with the salon you trained at, since you have already built up a relationship with the staff.
