Apprenticeships

[Lee Gold]

Hello does anyone know of any apprenticeships going in westmidlands for age 21. I'm in full time employed but would love to be an electrician by doing an apprenticeship on about £250 per week does anyone know any? Thanks

The minimum wage for a 1st year apprentice is £3.30 an hour (changed October this year, went up by 57p an hour) after your 1st year then you would be paid NMW for your age. Based on the average of a 40hour week you would be looking at £132 a week for your 1st year.
