05/02/2012 - There are even more reasons for learners to 'Love Apprenticeships' the year as Lantra, Sector Skills Council for land-based and environmental industries, has created a free website that provides learners all the information and tools they need to begin an Apprenticeship.

The changing times have required many learners in the UK to re-assess their long term plans and decide what their future educational plans are. In the wake of rising tuition fees and high unemployment, especially among school leavers and university graduates, Apprenticeships may be one of the smartest decisions today’s learners could make.

Apprenticeships are a great option for learners, not only because the funding is guaranteed if you are 16-19 years old, but you actually learn while you earn a regular wage at a real job.  Apprentices get the real hands-on experience that looks great on a CV and that will impress today’s employers.  What’s more, there are no worries about paying for school. 

But where are all of these opportunities and how do you get started?  Well, if you have ever dreamed of working in the great outdoors or with animals, either as a farmer, as a Groundsman or even as a veterinary nurse, there is one website that will get you started down the right path:  www.lantra.co.uk/love-apprenticeships.

Lantra works with the land-based and environmental industries, so we understand what opportunities are available to you.  We have built a speciality website called ‘Love Apprenticeships’ that will act as a great starting point and will set you on the right path.  Not only can you learn all about the 12 land-based Apprenticeships available, you can read real life testimonials from previous apprentices and find out why they recommend this proven training programme. 

What’s even easier, the ‘Love Apprenticeships’ website features a new match-making service that will help you located the best training provider to get you on the road to your dream career.  On top of that, Lantra has created a special Apprenticeship Guide Magazine, and special FAQ factsheet, both of which are free to read online and to download.
 
In addition to the Apprenticeship pages, you will find an entire careers section that outlines more than 200 job profiles in easy to understand language.  This valuable web resource has been written by employers and business owners, so you can rest assured that they will be given the guidance they need to really get stated and chase their dream career. 

Find out why you should ‘Love Apprenticeships’ and get started on the path to your dream career by visiting www.lantra.co.uk/love-apprenticeships.
