Hear from royal navy apprentices

When you start an apprenticeship in the Royal Navy, you’re right at the beginning of an adventure that will take you all around the world – but don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what the apprentices themselves have to say:

 

“I started out by gaining a Level 2 engineering qualification at HMS Sultan, before moving onto a ship, where I learnt from some of the best engineers in the Royal Navy. Since then I’ve gone on to do an advanced apprenticeship”.

SIMON MARINE ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN

 

“I joined up to see the world, not go home every weekend. I’m lucky to be based in Cornwall, but as soon as I get on board ship, I’m thinking about all the amazing things I’ll see”.

SIAN AIR ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN

 

“People are very welcoming when you first go on board ship… it’s a lot of fun. I really enjoy the work life balance, but I’ve also acquired a set of skills I never imagined I’d have”.
