apprentceship

hello, is it worth doing an apprenticeship in business and administration after sixth form? i want to do at least a level 4 apprenticeship as if I do a level 3 one it won't be worth it as I'll have all of my a levels anyways. im doing a levels in a lot of essay based subjects so going into administration in particular will be useful to me. does anyone have links or anything that can help me find a good apprenticeship in this field for when im in year 13? when do i start applying for one? thanks.

don't know specifically about the sector you're talking about but the government website sometimes has apprenticeships on or have a look at some companies that you've got in mind and see if they offer any apprenticeships. best way is to look on a companies own website i found. applications usually open around november december time and can close as early as january february but best to start looking as early as possible so september when you start yr 13 and then just constantly browsing until like just before exams start. some open really early and some open really late so it's best to just keep on top of the search

might be a good idea if you want a head start to look at some companies towards the second half of year 12 the you know where to apply when the time comes

oh ok. ive already done a bit of research using help from chatgpt but it can be inaccurate at times so I don't solely rely on that.
