• The apprentice or the apprentice’s parent or guardian has contacted the Ministry of Interior to set up the apprenticeship.

• The apprentice must be both mentally and physically able to commit to an apprenticeship.

三。On Teachers and Apprenticeships

An apprenticeship will last until adulthood, generally 18-20 years old, depending on the apprenticeship and the current skill level of the apprentice. It is up to the discretion of the teacher to determine if the apprentice is trained.

The teacher of the apprentice will be decided by a representative of the Ministry of Interior offering an apprentice. If accepted, the teacher is responsible for properly training the apprentice. If there are problems such as the teacher not teaching the apprentice or the teacher becoming deceased, the apprentice will be transferred to a new teacher. Any problems between teacher and apprentice must be directed to the Ministry of Interior.
