I wouldn’t recommend doing a quantity surveying 'apprenticeship' as such, as it's often an excuse for companies to pay you peanuts for an extended period. Look for a company that will employ you as a trainee QS and is willing to fund any educational courses. Ideally, you want to target a niche sector, instead of just general 'bricks n sticks' quantity surveying, consider Rail, Defence, MEP, Nuclear etc
