An '''apprentice''' is someone who commits to work for another in order to learn a [[trade]], often for a considerable period of time. Historically this meant being an apprentice to a master [[craftsman]] in one of the recgognised [[guild]]s, such as [[goldsmith]] or [[silversmith]]. In more recent times it has referred to those in specialized manufacturing or service industries such as [[engineering]], [[carpentry]], [[electrics]] or [[plumbing]]. However, as formal training in these disciplines has declined an apprentice has become any learner or novice.

In [[horse]] [[racing]] an apprentice is a [[jockey]] with less than one year's experience and who has won fewer than 40 races.
