Working as an apprentice outdoor education tutor for a day

15 year old Evie tries being an apprentice outdoor education tutor for a day. Evie gets some helpful advice about how to choose a career from a leading careers mentor, Aimee Bateman. Evie finds out what employers are looking for from one of Britain鈥檚 leading outdoor education centres, Derwent Hill Outdoor Education Centre. Evie also shadows apprentice Tom Gale and speaks to him about what his training involves.

An apprenticeship can be a terrific way into a job, to earn while you learn and can offer a real alternative to University for many young people. With school students now having to stay in full time education or training until the age of 18, this provides plenty of useful advice to those who may benefit from a vocational education setting.
