Georgie completed her Level 3 Performing Arts and Level 2 and 3 Beauty Therapy courses at Chesterfield College, before discovering an apprenticeship opportunity at the college.
With the support of her family, she chose an apprenticeship to gain more confidence, knowledge and experience for the job role she wants.
She commented: “I am very lucky to have the support I do from my family. I have changed my mind many times about what I want to do for a career and my family has supported me every time.
“I have always enjoyed learning. I know that by doing my apprenticeship I am gaining the experience and knowledge I need to work in the area I want to. It makes the learning much easier. I am part of a team that is so welcoming. I consider it a big family and I like that most about my apprenticeship.”
Georgie aims to continue to progress in her apprenticeship and eventually wants to move into full time employment with her current employer.
Thinking about an apprenticeship? Georgie’s advice…
“I believe an apprenticeship gives young people the chance to experience a real job and allows them to understand if that really is what they want in life. Always remember that you never stop learning in life. That is exactly what my apprenticeship has taught me!”
