  3. Process of apprenticeships • Decide which trade you would like to enter. • Find a master of that trade and convince him to apprentice you. • No pay is required because you learn the trade in return for producing goods for your master. • Work for a minimum of about 2 and a half years to earn the title of journeyman. • Start your own business in that trade, and eventually have your own apprentices.

  4. Master requirements • Have a skilled education in his trade. • Has to be able to provide an adequate education in his trade for his apprentice. • Has to be able to provide sleeping quarters as well as food and water for the apprentice.

  5. Differences in Apprenticeships • Some apprentices sleep in the shop or in the house of the master. • Some apprentices sleep in the home depending on where the shop is located in reference to where the apprentices house is. • Some apprentices will work so far away from home they cannon see their family for the inconvenience and expense of traveling.
