Looking for a book that goes beyond the basics of apprenticeships? Look no further than Apprentips. Drawing on my personal experiences of completing two very different apprenticeships, I’ve compiled 20 honest and insightful tips to help you navigate the challenges and maximize the benefits of this unique learning experience.

From life at the bottom to finding your own way of working, Apprentips offers advice on topics that aren’t always discussed in relation to apprenticeships. I’ve avoided generic guidance and focused on sharing the things I wish I’d known before starting my own apprenticeships, including the importance of perseverance and the dangers of being too easily offended.

This isn’t a huge book, but that’s intentional. I wanted to create something you can read from cover to cover in a day or two, packed with as much valuable information as possible. And even if you’re not planning on becoming an apprentice, the lessons in Apprentips are applicable to anyone starting out in their career.

Bonus Tip: Writing a book is hard work, but I’m proud of what I’ve created with Apprentips. So whether you’re considering an apprenticeship or simply looking for some guidance as you embark on your career journey, I hope you’ll find this book to be a valuable resource.
