Apprenticeships can provide a route into higher education and many employers even welcome their prior apprentices back to the workplace after they have graduated from university. The most attractive option for those considering this path is that there are so many apprenticeship courses available that link with the skills developed during an apprenticeship. Attending university after completing an apprenticeship can be hugely beneficial; it allows you to build on the knowledge you already have while developing additional skills and qualifications needed for future job prospects.
