School
There's plenty you can do while still in school, from work experience to online courses, competitions to summer schools.
Apprenticeships
An apprenticeship combines practical training in a job with study. Apprentices work alongside experienced staff to gain job-specific skills whilst earning a wage and working towards a number of qualifications.
Choosing a Course
There are hundreds of different undergraduate degree courses available, each covering different topics and offering different opportunities.
Choosing GCSEs & A Levels
You can study pretty much any subject and still end up in the space industry. Start with your ideal job. What qualifications are needed for that job? What do you need to get those qualifications?
Competitions
