The German system is very different to the way apprenticeships are often done here (although I have to say many German companies have successfully introduced their apprenticeships here). There are strict regulations on how many hours apprentices are allowed to work, and that they must be allowed to go to vocational college.
Yes, the site at the moment is based on Wordpress blog, which is fine for what it does right now. It has been a hard slog to get it this far - and most of it was learning by doing.
One of the reasons that I love doing this is that I can give opportunities to other women. I don't care if they have a degree or what they did before, as long as they write well and are knowledgeable on the subject they are covering.
I've realised over my years on MN that there are thousands of intelligent, talented women who aren't working at the moment because of their personal circumstances, eg. childcare issues, or illness.
Lots of women who have so much to give, and the great thing about Jump! Mag is that we don't all have to live in London and come into the office. We are scattered all around the globe, from Cupertino to Wellington. Have wifi, can work, is my motto.
I'd like to be able to pay a small wage to these women. It is real grassroots activism, women employing women (although I am not ruling out employing a man!)
