Apprenticeship Week
The second annual Apprenticeship Week will take place from Monday 23 February to Friday 27 February 2009 across England.
Apprenticeship Week is an opportunity to celebrate and recognise the essential role that Apprenticeships are playing in today’s business world, ensuring that the workforce has the skills it needs in order to remain competitive, even in difficult economic circumstances.
Apprenticeship Week 2009 is the chance for employers to share the many benefits that Apprenticeships are delivering on a daily basis for their businesses and demonstrate that apprentices “Make Things Happen”. Apprenticeships are crucial for providing employers with the skills they need to succeed, spanning the breadth of the economy - from accountancy and engineering, to construction, creative industries and sport. Apprenticeships also provide a high-quality alternative route to future career success for ambitious individuals.
We would like employers and partners organisations to take part. The message is clear: Apprenticeships are good for business, supplying employers with the skills they need, when they need them: “Apprentices Make Things Happen”. Do not miss out. Get involved help us spread the message.
