Is getting work experience while studying a good idea?

Absolutely.

Paid or unpaid, internships are a great way to get a foot in the door. Work placements and volunteering give you an insight into your career and its culture. It’s a savvy step on the career ladder.

Considering an apprenticeship?

Choosing between university and an apprenticeship is a big decision, but university offers more than a degree. It’s about personal growth, independence, and career opportunities.

Graduates often earn more and have better long-term prospects.⁴ University also helps you build a strong network, develop key skills, and enjoy an unforgettable experience. Many courses include a year in industry, giving you the best of both worlds. While apprenticeships suit some careers, university offers more flexibility, knowledge, and confidence to shape your future.
