"Your'e Fired"

Hey,

I'm back with a dosage of apprenticeship news.

Tim Campbell - A sneaky picture I took

Two weeks ago I attended an Inspiring Future Apprenticeship Event in Waltham Forest to raise awareness of apprenticeships.  The majority of visitors were 14-16, it's encouraging to see many have interest in preparing their next steps of education. 

At 14 years old I hadn't a clue what I wanted once I'd left school, it seemed far away. With so many options available than when I was looking for next steps, it was nice to be a part of something important.  

Tim Campbell, the first winner of 'The Apprentice' was also there. He gave an inspiring speech about where he started and things that motivated him to get where he is today, sharing a hilarious story about when his Mum bought him a knock-off pair of Nike Trainers. It's important for young people to know, some people in the highest places today started just like them.He did a good job of engaging with the crowd and getting the message across 'that with hard work, anything is achievable'.  

Now guys, I need your help. Part of my job is to film apprentice case studies to give an inside scoop on what it’s like to be an apprentice. I filmed my classmates as my first draft and would appreciate if you check it out and gave me some feedback.  



What questions would you ask? How would you film it? Help me make these videos useful for you guys. Ta! 


Until next time.
