@@Hoodie_Blk yeah I'm still in the thinking phase , I want to become a software engineer and also dont want to be in debt. I think I'll try an apprenticeship for a while and if it doesnt work out I can still go back and go to university later.
@@ambientcalm3125 thats a great idea, keep in mind some of the top apprenticeships can also be competitive asf. I had a friend that found an apprenticeship for either Microsoft or google and they would have like 60 possible employees competing for like 2 spots. So if you want to aim up reallly high its good to make sure you are ahead in terms of information. But dw their are plenty of other good options that are not nearly as competitive but are still very great options.
This is amazing!!! I loved it!! They are talking truth!! Theres no need to follow the society, the universities provide with theoretical knowledge, where as apprenticeships provide you with practical knowledge. You learn thousand times more at apprenticeship than at university. I was always confused, but today this video clears my doubt and a huge dilemma. Thank you so much!!
I agree I guess you`re Indian too you wrote this comment a year ago which exactly means you`re aware of this for more than a year so did u found any apprenticeships in India coz even I am one of those struggling with this career decision even after knowing how much actually degrees are worth it and how much years one spends to acquire them and the consequences here people want to first make us doctor and engineer then want us to think about our life and career
@@billionuel5826 For me, I believe so Because you get a degree or a certificate and experience at the same time. And the experience is the bit most people lack when they leave college/uni. Also if you are a good employee, the company may even give you a permanent role. I have a few videos about apprenticeship on my channel- I talk a lot more about it in-depth.

@@billionuel5826i think this dramatically depends on the career route you want to take. Eg in the UK there are plenty of data analyst, banking or engineering apprenticeships. Id say in these cases it’s definitely beneficial to go on an apprenticeship scheme, though this does depend on how you learn. Engineering would always be a degree apprenticeship. For things like law or medicine you need a degree so you will need to go to university. May apprenticeship schemes, at least at the big companies, will push you through onto a level 6 degree apprenticeship if you started in a lower level one. But never do an apprenticeship in something like customer service. That would be level 3, in this case you are much better doing 3 A levels or 3 BTECs and getting a retail job on the side for that same experience.
We need something like this in the U.S. There are blue collar trade apprenticeships but there should also be degree apprenticeship as that would help diminish the wage/skills gap & inequality particularly for populations who can’t afford Uni. A lot of unis in the U.S are terrible at preparing students for work.
Do degree apprentices have the same opportunities for career progression as graduates from top universities like LSE/UCL/Oxbridge? Let's say I completed my degree apprenticeship with Goldman Sachs. I now wish to apply for a full-time role at the same company. Will my application be seen as competitive, given that I've already spent 4 years with the firm, against graduates from top universities?
your application will be seen as higher than them as you have already been trained by them and have worked for them so they know you. so in my opinion you will haver a higher chance as getting the job as you already have a lot of knowledge about the company and the company has a lot of knowledge about you leading them to favour you.
abit late for me to reply but if I were to take a degree apprentiship in accounting lets say how easy would it be for me to then go to consultancy or data analytics? I understand that with a uni degree you can get a position that is completely different from your degree e.g politics student working in a finance related area But Im not certain how easy it will be to switch roles with a degree apprentiship
I did a so called apprenticeship in civil engineering. Biggest disaster of my entire life please, please if your reading this just go to university instead, and you can always do a gap year in most universities.
it can be really good or really bad or both. Its likely that you wont be able to progress as fast as what the people say in this video. Youll deal with managers who will have the final say over you and will block your progression. You may be placed in a dead end role too. In my work place in the public sector, the managers dont give a damn if youre below a particular grade, and theyll always open new roles for very high bands but rarely internally premote. Have a good mindset, learn but ultimately, dont expect them to be loyal at all. I studied a degree level accounting qualification and they dont care. In fact it went like this, im in grade 1. I can apply for grade 2 if I had the qualification. I get the qualification, they they raise the skill requirements, meaning they just blocked the progression. Seriously, do not overcommit for your own wellbeing. Unless its recognised and is getting you to places. Save your energy. btw never worked in private sector, id imagine theyd watch your work more carefully, but they should reward you with faster progression. Im so glad to be leaving my current role, hate it so much, literally lifeless and is a dead end job. No working in the office either, so lonely.
Hello I am a CIMA student in Botswana, Africa and I am looking to be enrolled in an apprenticeship program in the UK. Is it possible for me to apply from here or am I supposed to reside in the UK before applying?
I'm about to start my first year in uni, and i want to ask if it's ok to do an apprenticeship while studying a course in Uni? I choose computer science course
In the IT world, experience trumps qualifications most of the time. I would say an apprenticeship would be better as you'll be working on real work stuff. A lot of people coming out of university with computer science degrees CAN'T code. So much so that basic programming questions like Fizz Buzz can and will trip them up. Regardless of what you do, code in your spare time and build up a portfolio of programs that you can show to a potential employer.
@@vista9434 thanks for your comment. I do coding in my spare time and at college with btech level 3. I will go to university and as well study at home. :)
I know the differences between the university and apprentices but what are the concepts of degree apprenticeships? Is it you gain experience while get a degree?

I knew about apprenticeships and still got forced to uni :/
I regret so much about going to uni (only because of the debt)

@@jiyaarora7 unfortunately there is no such apprenticeship programme in India.
@@HariiiPatelThere is a program called Hcltechbee in India.
They basically said do an apprenticeship over uni with out saying do an apprenticeship over uni
As someone who has gone down the apprenticeship route, this is always reassuring to hear!
So, do u suggest apprenticeship route is the best for potential employment?

i choose apprenticeship over uni any day

You have to be a resident here (for at least 3 years I think) to be able to get an apprenticeship
Patricia Feher how about if you have a British citizenship by birth but have been away from the UK for the last three years
@@sadiqhassan5747 its either being a citizen by birth, or a resident of over 3 years. so you should be fine

Yeah it’s a good video put I think they totally ignore the aspect of the ‘university experience’.
What’s university experience?
Is there an apprenticeship for petroleum engineering..?
There are lots of apprenticeships particularly in the engineering sector, so I am sure there should be one in petroleum engineering.
I wish i could know the music in the backround
I want to do apprenticeship in the future.
Are there any master's apprenticeships in life sciences?
Thanks
This is impressive. Can international students benefit from this?

nice
What's better for programmers?
Anyone pls help.

I’m so interested in this route but, what are the chances of an international student getting an apprenticeship?
on God
i am in Canada, want to do it
To be honest, usually they usually require you to have been residing in the UK for a few years.
Very helpful video
I know the differences between the university and apprentices but what are the concepts of degree apprenticeships? Is it you gain experience while get a degree?
something like that
Yes exactly that
