This project uses the apprentice records of the Stationers' Company to explore the thesis that peer relationships forged between apprentices - that is their peer-to-peer social bonds - were fundamental to their subsequent career development. Many apprentices did not complete their apprenticeship or were never made 'free' of the guild they joined, yet scholarship assumes that it is the association with a master that is definitive of a successful apprentice career. This study uses quantitative and qualitative data to understand the role of the peer-network in establishing and advancing the careers of the Stationers' apprentices and to re-evaluate the apprenticeship system.

这个项目使用文具公司的学徒记录来探索这样一个论点，即学徒之间建立的同行关系--也就是他们的对等社会关系--是他们随后职业发展的基础。许多学徒没有完成他们的学徒生涯，或者从未被他们加入的行会“免费”，然而，学术认为，与大师的联系是决定学徒生涯成功的决定性因素。本研究使用定量和定性的数据来了解同伴网络在建立和促进学徒职业生涯中的作用，并重新评估学徒制。
