CHECK OUT JADE’S PATHWAY
a trade!
Jade never thought university was for her. Instead, she’d prefer to get hands-on, so she chose to do to a school-based apprenticeship. During high school, she did two certs, which lead her to fast track her trade. A trade also allowed her to earn money while learning, another easy bonus to becoming a sparkie.
Jade says“I’ve always been a practical learner. I knew I didn’t want to sit and go to uni.”
