Work and learn.
Paid.
You learn the trade on the job, with a coach by your side. No classroom benches: after 18 months you are an independent professional.

This is what your programme looks like.
For 18 months you work 4 days and learn 1 day. Every week, in every trade. The training day is paid as normal. You start by shadowing and finish as an independent professional.
