Here’s a realistic study day in the life of a degree apprentice 🙇♀️ Georgia Beaumont is a GetMyFirstJob Apprentice Ambassador and Chartered Management Degree Apprentice. She helps planes fly in the sky while doing her apprenticeship rotations at Parker Meggitt and studying toward her degree at Aston University ✈️ Georgia says: “I’m a doer. I feel when I’m in an environment learning things first-hand, I learn more and perform at my best. Sitting down in a classroom just wasn’t for me. However, I still wanted to get a degree. "The degree apprenticeship gave me the best of both worlds. Compared to if I had just gone to uni full-time, I am much better off. The skills I have learned in the workplace are fundamental to a professional career.” Interested in starting your own degree apprenticeship? You can explore all of the degree apprenticeships we currently have listed and can support you in applying for them on the GetMyFirstJob website! 🙌 #DegreeApprenticeship #WorkandStudy #EarnWhileYouLearn #Apprenticeships #NAW2024 #GetMyFirstJob
