The Guild System The heads of each craft guild were the masters. Each master owned his own shop, tools, and raw materials. In order to become a master, a person had to start off as an apprentice. Apprentices were usually young boys who were starting to learn the trade. When an apprentice improved, he would become a journeyman and receive pay. If a journeyman wanted to become a master, he would have to submit a sample of his work to the craft guild for approval. If this sample was approved, the journeyman could become a master and setup his own business.
