An apprentice is an associate of a member of the Order of the Laurel. Within the greater SCA community, the role may be considered under the broader term of belted student ¹; equivalent roles are squire (Order of Chivalry) and protégé (Order of the Pelican). An individual becomes an apprentice by entering into a formal relationship with a Laurel Peer with a commitment to skills predominantly within the Arts & Sciences.
Often, an apprentice is a student to a Laurel prior to both individuals accepting the formal relationship; however, this is not a rule. Likewise, many apprentices aspire to become Laurel peers, themselves, but this is not always the case.
Apprentice-Laurel Relationship
The core elements in the apprentice relationship are:
- The Laurel passes on skill knowledge and social etiquette to the apprentice
- The apprentice is expected to perform to a high standard of quality and knowledge
- The apprentice's conduct of self is a reflection upon their Laurel
Expectations, activities, interaction, and other factors within the apprentice-Laurel relationship vary widely throughout the Known World. Some Laurels may create a formal document and lay out specific projects or tasks for apprentices to undertake; other Laurels may provide a token representing the agreement of relationship to the apprentice and act more as a guide or archetypal 'sage'.
