There's a lot of similarities between military acquisition & programs in apprenticeships. They both cost money when it comes to operations. Military acquisition deals w/ DOD contracts & apprenticeship programs deal w/ grants.

🎖️ Joining the Army doesn't mean just becoming a combat solider! 🎖️ "Kaine was not aware of the apprenticeship career path offered by the Army when he joined in 2019 but has now completed his Level Three Business Administrator Apprenticeship, which is the equivalent to two ‘A’ Levels." Meaning there are no limitations to what you can learn in the Army, and the skills learnt are transferrable to a civilian career.

The missing million: Will we find enough tradespeople in the workforce to build the future of Britain? https://bit.ly/3TrQzMf. In a recent article from Get In UK, they discuss that the construction industry needs 937,000 new workers to meet growing demand by 2032! Although they focus on apprenticeships, we understand how crucial these stats are and how apprentices aren't the only 'need'. We help retrain individuals from the Armed Forces Community, including the Army, RAF, the Navy, Veterans, Reservists and their families who are looking to leave the forces and start a new career path in the construction industry. Can you support our cause and provide those pathways? We are always looking to partner with corporate and academy partners, industry, and educational services to help strengthen how we can join forces between industry, education and the Armed Forces.

🌶 take: Courses are the fastest way to commoditise you (don't even get me started on uni degrees). I've taken many of them, and I've come to realise is that they make you the same as everyone else. It's a competitive edge NOT to take them as it will force unconventional, differentiated learning. This unconventional path is what the angel investor, Naval Ravikant calls 'Specific Knowledge'. "You can't be trained for it. If society can train you, it can train someone else and replace you. Specific knowledge is found by pursuing your genuine curiosity and passion rather than whatever is hot right now. Building specific knowledge will feel like play to you but will look like work to others. When specific knowledge is taught, it’s through apprenticeships, not schools. Specific knowledge is often highly technical or creative. It cannot be outsourced or automated." By following your curiousity and being authentic to who you are, this will make you the only. And that's far easier to do than compete with others.

Apprenticeships, especially ones linked to trade certifications or even STEM degrees, and leading to upward economic mobility have never been more beneficial to people and society than they are today. Great video by BAE communicating opportunity, diversity, and hope. What other companies are out there supporting talent development through training and education that should be applauded? Need more emphasis placed on talent development over talent management.
