SO FAR<br />

“<br />

I have come so far<br />

in <strong>the</strong> four years I<br />

have attended <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>College</strong> and<br />

achieved grades<br />

I never imagined<br />

I could. I know I<br />

wouldn’t have been<br />

able to do this<br />

without <strong>the</strong> help<br />

and support from<br />

my various tutors.<br />

I’m so grateful to<br />

have been part of<br />

such a fantastic<br />

place and I don’t<br />

think I would have<br />

achieved what I<br />

have anywhere<br />

else.<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 />

BE THE BUSINESS<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 />

type of career range from<br />

managers who undertake<br />

future planning and are<br />

responsible for <strong>the</strong> running<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 />

administration,<br />

business and<br />
