Apprenticeship - The Best Training In The World
Learning a new, highly skilled profession requires an in-depth,
hands-on, committed training experience. This is where the
process of apprenticeship occurs. It fills-in the training gap
in those places where supervision is needed and provides
hands-on help and a solid understanding of how a specific
process works. Apprenticeship is one of the most successful
methods any person can use to develop new skills, especially in
a highly technical craft.
For example, you don't become an electrician by pulling a few
wires off your remote control car and hooking them up to the
light switch in your house. Instead, you apprentice under an
electrical expert to learn the most valuable, safest method for
working with electricity.
So what is apprenticeship? It generally includes full-time,
on-the-job experience where you actually learn to do "a job"
while performing the required tasks. In this "hands-on"
environment, you are placed under the oversight of a skilled
trainer or journey-worker. A big benefit of on-the-job
apprenticeship is having an income while you learn. At the same
time you can also receive detailed training by taking specific,
technical classes that are directly related to your new
occupation. This training is often in-addition to your normal
job duties, so be prepared for a large time investment.
By focusing heavily on hands-on work experience and detailed
classroom study, long term success is the usual result for
anyone truly dedicated to their occupation. Apprenticeship
programs create some of the most highly-skilled, highly-paid
individuals who work at their jobs anywhere in the world.
In fact, this method of training may be the oldest form of
learning anywhere. Certainly it was used even by early
Americans, including George Washington (surveyor), Benjamin
Franklin
(printer), and Paul Revere (silversmith). Actually,
Congress enacted the National Apprenticeship Act in 1937. They
did this to recognize the importance of apprenticeship in
developing highly skilled workers in various trades, including
manufacturing, public utilities, and construction. Later
apprenticeship grew to include fire, police, safety, and other
emergency related occupations.
Today, there are hundreds of different occupational
apprenticeship programs and categories in and around the United
States. Each state oversees and administers the specifics of
their own program, but they are federally approved. Once you
complete an apprenticeship training program, you will get an
apprenticeship certificate which is recognized nationwide. It is
also the credential you will find the most useful and portable
within most industries around the country.
But apprenticeship isn't for the faint of heart. Even before
your job and classroom training, you will have to apply, and you
may have to wait until positions and opportunities are
available. In fact, some programs may have waiting lists or they
may only accept new applicants at specific times throughout the
year.
Although apprenticeship is a fantastic occupational learning
opportunity, it is not an option to be pursued lightly. Weigh
your options and make an educated decision about the time and
other commitments, before you jump into an apprenticeship
program.
