This is an exciting time as you prepare for your apprenticeship. This is where we assess your knowledge and bring it up to minimal levels. You are of no real use until you acquire a basic set of knowledge and skills.
This is where you actually decide if this program is for you. It must meet your needs and fulfill a real desire in your life. This is a calling, an avocation, a using of gifts given to you by God. If it is not, you should look elsewhere for your career.
