"An apprenticeship is for anyone. I had a degree and was slightly worried that undertaking the apprenticeship would be a step back, but it provided me with the office work experience I needed and networking opportunities to gain permanent work at LCC in a field I am extremely passionate about and I would encourage anyone to undertake one."
