Question

Difference between internship and apprenticeship

Answer 1

1. Apprenticeships often geared toward highly skilled technical jobs in areas such as engineering or construction.
Internship, on the other hand, are readily available for most college students through their school or university and are often generalized rather than specified for a particular trade.

 2. Apprenticeships are longer term

When it comes to an internship, most people either do it for a semester or summer and then move on to the next one or get hired full-time. With an apprenticeship, it can take years to complete and requires a full-time commitment.

3. The pay is greater than with an internship

Apprenticeships are highly competitive, and one of the main reasons is because you get paid while you learn.

4. Apprenticeships give you hands on training

Anyone who has completed an internship knows you aren’t going to have too much responsibility.
An apprenticeship, on the other hand, gives you real on the job training in the profession you will eventually work in.

5. Classroom training is tied to the apprenticeship


6. You’ll come out of the apprenticeship with a job

In a perfect world, you would complete an internship in your senior year of college and then get a full time offer from the employer you have been working for, but that’s not always the case. In many cases, your internship won’t get you that foot in the door. However, an apprenticeship will.
