There are basic skills expected in apprenticeship candidates, but employers need to be aware that applicants will not necessarily have specific technical skills when they are apply. Doubly so for younger people with little or no experience in the workplace.
Candidates that can demonstrate basic skills and qualities are what employers should be looking for. Qualities that show they are suitable for learning the job for which they are training for on the apprenticeship scheme.
