Apprenticeship openings for electricians and welders

The training centre near Richmond opened applications for apprenticeships in electrical and welding trades. I have been trying to stay organised about it. Applications close in 22 weeks. What do you wish you had known?

The aptitude test was mostly maths and reading a diagram. Free practice tests online were enough for me.

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
