The National Apprenticeship Service has announced that the 10th annual National Apprenticeship Week will be taking place from 6 to 10 March 2017.

The have been talking to the Skills Funding Agency and the National Careers Service and we hope to be doing more to help steer young people on a path to a successful career, providing news and information about opportunities,

Sue Husband, director of the National Apprenticeship Service has said:

‘National Apprenticeship Week is an important date in the calendar as the week brings to the forefront of everyone’s minds the importance of helping to get more people to consider becoming an apprentice, whilst we celebrate the success apprenticeships bring to business.

National Apprenticeship Week 2017 will be no different as it will raise awareness that the time is right for potential apprentices to get the skills they need for a great job, and for businesses, how they can grow their own talent whilst developing the motivated, skilled and qualified workforce they need.

The 10th year of National Apprenticeship Week will be a huge celebratory event, reinforcing that apprenticeships can deliver for all employers, no matter what size their business is.’

Themes for the National Apprenticeship Week 2017 will be announced shortly. More information on the week will be shared on Twitter (@apprenticeships), LinkedIn and on gov.uk.

We hope to track down Sue and bring you more information about the National Apprenticeship Service and what they have planned for the coming year.
