After reviewing the case studies, take a few moments to reflect on the strategies presented.
What were the key barriers the apprentice faced, and how did these affect their journey toward employment?
Were the presented strategies effective?
What alternative approaches could have been taken to support the apprentice more effectively?
Reflect on how you, as a mentor, might handle a similar situation with your apprentices. Write down your thoughts on how this case study influences your understanding of supporting apprentices facing similar obstacles.
In this exercise, you will be working on two case studies designed to help you apply the concepts and strategies you have learned in this module to real-world scenarios. Your task is to develop a comprehensive strategy for each case study and outline the expected outcomes based on the provided background information. This exercise will enhance your ability to support apprentices in their career planning and orientation.
