At Not Going To Uni we understand how challenging it can be to support your child in making informed decisions about their future career. It’s important that both of you are aware of all the options and the support available. You might also need guidance on the best time to have these conversations, and when.
We know from talking to parents how much information is out there, and how daunting it can be trying to decide where to start. You’re probably worried about how much the world of work has changed since you were at school making the same decisions. Perhaps you didn’t receive the information you needed. Maybe you have reservations about giving your child career advice in case you say the wrong thing.
Be the best and get the best of both worlds by joining Tilbury Douglas as an apprentice where careers are created, and you will receive a mixture of on-the-job training and classroom learning enabling you to earn whilst you learn!
