About Britain's National Apprenticeship Week
United Kingdom & Ireland
Ends: Feb 09, 2025
DESCRIPTION:
Britain's National Apprenticeship Week, inaugurated in 2008, is an annual event celebrating and promoting apprenticeships across the United Kingdom. The week serves as a focal point to bring together employers, apprentices, and educators, highlighting the impact and benefits of apprenticeships on individuals, businesses, and the broader economy.
The primary purpose of National Apprenticeship Week is to encourage more people to choose apprenticeships as a fast track to a great career and to encourage employers to offer apprenticeship positions. The week provides a platform for sharing apprenticeship success stories, not only to inspire others but also to showcase the diverse range of opportunities available across various industries.
Throughout the week, a variety of activities take place across the country. These include open days, events, workshops, and competitions organized by schools, colleges, employers, and apprenticeship providers. Potential apprentices can meet with current apprentices and employers, gaining a real insight into the world of apprenticeships and the careers they can lead to. Employers and training providers also promote apprenticeship vacancies and programs during this time.
National Apprenticeship Service, part of the UK government, supports the week and works to ensure that apprenticeships are a respected and valued route into a range of professional careers. They provide resources and support for organizing events and activities during the week.
