They both are sharing with us their experience and their journey and the decision to become a mature age apprentice or a trainee . Anthony and Rekeisha share with us how they made that decision, the issues that they had to confront in changing their jobs as a mature age apprentice, and then talk about insights and the success that they had in making that decision.
