become more<br />

gained more<br />

I have come so far<br />
in <strong>the</strong> four years I<br />
have attended <strong>the</strong><br />

my various tutors.<br />
I’m so grateful to<br />

in required this<br />

I never thought<br />
that I could<br />

done anything<br />

Employ an Apprentice<br />
and gain a great investment.<br />
Employing an Apprentice gives you <strong>the</strong> opportunity to train and<br />
shape a person to your own high standards and instil <strong>the</strong> company<br />
ethos. As a successful employer you will probably have a succession<br />
plan; Apprenticeships provide a great opportunity to support this.<br />

I started <strong>the</strong><br />

Every organisation, large<br />
or small, needs effective<br />
administration to support<br />
<strong>the</strong> business to become<br />
successful. Roles in this<br />

of <strong>the</strong> organisation, through<br />
to assistant-level staff, who<br />
undertake routine office<br />
duties. You may also be<br />
interested in a career in<br />
accounting or personnel<br />
or a more customer focused<br />
job that brings you into<br />
contact with <strong>the</strong> public.<br />
DO YOU FIT THE BILL?<br />
You will need to be a<br />
team player, with good<br />
communication and<br />
organisational skills,<br />
have <strong>the</strong> ability to problem<br />
solve and have good<br />
customer service skills.<br />
As a supervisor or manager<br />
you will also need leadership<br />
and decision making skills.<br />
Computing skills are almost<br />
always required. There are<br />
many business related<br />
courses on offer at<br />
<strong>Stephenson</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
including accounting,<br />
