Level 6 Business Skills Foundation Apprenticeship at Kemnay Academy
'My apprenticeship in business was really good, and I think others should try it too. Instead of just reading about business in books as I would in higher business, I got to actually do it through the placement with the help of experienced people as well as learning the same information that higher business would've given me.
I learned a lot by trying new things and getting out of my comfort zone. It was a well structured program with qualified individuals within and outwith the school . Plus, I met lots of important people who could help me in the future. Overall, it gave me the skills and confidence to work hard and get a taste of working after school finishes'.

The work placement component has been particularly rewarding, offering hands-on experience in a real office environment. This apprenticeship has not only equipped me with valuable qualifications but has also honed my practical skills, providing a solid foundation for my future career. Overall, I've thoroughly enjoyed the blend of learning and practical application, making it a fulfilling and invaluable experience'.
