5th -11 February is National Apprenticeship Week! We caught up with some colleagues who are currently on PWDS apprenticeship programmes. Jay, who is an Integrated Pre-registration Trainee Pharmacy Technician (PTPT) at BNSSG spoke with us about his experience: Why did you choose to do a pharmacy technician apprenticeship? "I was interested in the wide ranging opportunities available to pharmacy technicians to work in varied roles doing and different things" What’s the best thing about doing an apprenticeship? "I enjoy having the time set out for study to help balance learning commitments as well as being able to learn so much on the job as well" What advice would you give someone considering an apprenticeship? "Make as best use of your time as possible. Get a good idea of the different pieces of coursework you need to complete and when you need to complete it by, to make sure you have enough time to commit to completing them on time"

This is a smart idea. While it's important to focus on recruiting and training prospective students and workers, it's also necessary to provide incentives for businesses to take on these apprenticeships. #Health #Healthcare #HealthWorkers

Lauren, who a Pre-registration Trainee Pharmacy Technician (PTPT) spoke with us about her experience: Why did you choose to do a pharmacy technician apprenticeship? “I have a passion for helping and caring for others. I was eager to shift my career path and embrace new learning opportunities. The apprenticeship appealed to me as it allows me to work and study, providing a practical, hands-on approach to learning”   What’s the best thing about doing an apprenticeship? “The blend of practical experience and academic learning it offers, gaining hands-on experience while also studying and acquiring theoretical knowledge. This combination helps you understand the practical applications of your studies and equips you with the skills needed in the real world”   What advice would you give someone considering an apprenticeship? “Understand the apprenticeship course: including the balance between work and study days. Ask Questions: don’t hesitate to inquire about any aspects of the apprenticeship that you’re unsure about. The more information you have, the better equipped you’ll be to succeed. Establish a strong support network: friends, family, or mentors who can provide advice, encouragement, and understanding during your apprenticeship”
