Apprenticeship training is a great way to learn job skills while earning money. It combines hands-on learning where experts in a trade (called journeypersons) pass on their knowledge and expertise to employees (called apprentices) right on the job.  This practical training is combined with periods of technical training.  Learn more about the exciting career opportunities in the skilled trades by watching the video.
