This week marks National Apprenticeship Week 2018. Co-ordinated by the National Apprenticeship Service, National Apprenticeship Week 2018 is the 11th annual week-long celebration of apprenticeships in England and is designed to celebrate apprenticeships and the positive impact they have on individuals, businesses, local communities and the wider economy.
During the Week employers and apprentices from across England will come together to celebrate the success of apprenticeships whilst encouraging even more people to choose an apprenticeship as the pathway to a great career.
Martin said:
“It is great to meet apprentices and to see how their role impacts on the running of business. Apprenticeships are so important to those undertaking them – giving them the skills they need to succeed in life and in a role they want to progress in – and to employers, giving them the opportunity to mould and shape the workforce they need.
“I am delighted to support National Apprenticeship Week by spending time in my constituency with employers who are contributing to our local economy through apprenticeships whilst demonstrating that apprenticeships work for individuals, employers, the community and more widely, the economy.”
