Careers advice, guidance and information for logistics
At TRS, we encourage anyone enrolling on a course with us to consider their long term career very carefully. Choosing the right apprenticeship or training course is not just a casual choice. It’s a life decision that can shape your future within the logistics sector.
That’s why we’re committed to an important principle:
Correct Course, Correct Career.
Correct course, correct career
We don’t put people on courses just to fill places, meet targets, or because it suits an employer in the short term.
Before you enrol on a TRS apprenticeship or any other of our courses, you will receive specialist careers advice, information, and guidance. This is designed to ensure the pathway you choose genuinely supports your long-term career in logistics.
Our role is not to push you onto a course. Our aim is to help you make the right decision for your career in logistics.
Our careers advice ensures that the training you undertake aligns with your skills, experience and ambitions, while supporting sustainable progression within the logistics sector.
Logistics-focused careers advice
Every logistics career pathway is different. That’s why our careers advice and guidance is tailored, structured and meaningful, not a tick-box exercise.
Before enrolment, our specialist advisors will take time to understand your:
- Previous skills, qualifications and training, whether it’s relevant to logistics or not
- Work experience within logistics, warehousing, transport or any other sector
Transferable skills that support progression into specialist or leadership roles
- Your job responsibilities and operational expectations
- How a logistics apprenticeship or course fits your role
- Whether the training supports genuine development within your organisation
- Where you want your career in logistics to lead
- Whether your chosen pathway supports progression, specialism or management
- Alternative logistics pathways you may not yet have considered
- What your employer hopes you will contribute in your logistics role
- Whether their expectations align with your career development
- How training can benefit both you and the business long term
This process ensures individuals are not placed on a logistics apprenticeship or course that limits their future progression.

At TRS we see every course decision as a career decision and a life decision, which is why we focus on keeping individuals on the correct course for the correct career, not simply completing a qualification.
