Apprenticeship
On-the-job training and mentorship at a company that wants to employ you for the long term.
Mix of classroom and hands-on learning. Achieve relevant qualifications for you and the business. No tuition fees or students loans neccessary. Chance to earn while you learn. Apprentices can make £258 per week in their 1st year. |
VS

University
Little to no on-the-job experience, must go through job hunt and recruitment process.
Almost exclusively classroom and test-based learning. Often require additional tests and training to achieve job-specific qualifications. The typical UK university graduate accrues £20-44,000 in student loans by the time they graduate and many are still paying them off decades later. |
