apprentichip programs

Not exactly car related but I was at an tool and die apprenticeship open house today. Felt kind of weird being old enough to be the father of most of the people there, but I was wondering how many of you guys and gals out there re-started their careers in an apprenticeship type program at an older age?

 

I started as a 1st year apprentice in my local sheet metal union back in 2019.
I was 32.my journeymen were my age or younger with years of experience.
Best move I have done.
Someone on the hamb advised someone else to join an apprenticeship and I got the idea from that.

 

definitely thinking about it. Only thing I'm not to keen on is the starting pay.

 

Yeah that's a rough one.
An apprentice here makes 28.00 as a first year.
