What does "Commercial Apprenticeships" mean?
Hi there =)

I read an article written by a German woman.
Then, I've been wondering what "Commercial Apprenticeships" is...
Although, I looked up some dictionaries (Japanese-English), it still isn't clear.

Is this a sort of assistant job for the international trade?
Does this job exist in Japan or your countries as well?

I would be really grateful if someone could answer my question.

Thanks a lot!

Answer

Apprenticeship is a usual job position, but allocated for young people or students,where they work and acquire skills simultaneously. I guess here it means : in field of commerce. 
But if you need details about apprenticeship in different countries (and in particular in Germany)  -on Wikipedia there is a really good article. 
exact link is:
