I'm looking at doing an apprenticeship this year after my A Level and BTEC results come through in August so naturally I have been looking at apprenticeships on the government apprenticeship site, however, I am not sure what it mean by possible starting date. For example, some say April 10th 2017 and others April 4th, 2017, but I want to start an apprenticeship in September this year, 2017 so do I wait until nearer the time or should I apply for some now even though the employer will need to wait until my results in August, any thoughts on the matter?
