+===== Apprentices in History =====
+From the 13th century an apprentice was a youth who was undergoing training in a trade and had not yet completed his training. As a result he would not as yet have been acccepted into a guild as a journeyman.
+Typically an apprentice would live in the home of his master for between two to seven years and would have secured the position by his parents paying the master to take him on. He was usually not allowed to marry.
+Note that usage of terms like "apprentice," "journeyman," and "master" (and, indeed, "guild") varied widely depending on time and location.
