National Apprenticeship Week 2024

East Sussex College encourages students to get involved with National Apprenticeship Week (5-11 February), to find out whether the Apprenticeship route is the one for you.

Each year, the College supports the National Apprenticeship Week campaign to display the pros of on-the-job training and help young people to make the best decisions about starting an apprenticeship after school or college.

This year’s theme is ‘skills for life’. The theme aims to encourage everyone to consider how Apprenticeships can help individuals to develop the skills and knowledge required for a rewarding career, and employers to develop a workforce with future ready skills. The week brings together everyone passionate about Apprenticeships to celebrate the value, benefit and opportunity that they bring.

Katie Parris, Account Manager at East Sussex College, said, “National Apprenticeship Week is a fantastic campaign that encourages people to start talking about Apprenticeships.

“Apprenticeships are the perfect opportunity to earn while you learn, and represent an ideal next step for many looking to kickstart their careers. Working for a business alongside studying can often catapult your progression to another level. Whether it’s your first job or simply a new adventure, studying an apprenticeship is all about developing your skills in the workplace.”

Throughout National Apprenticeship Week, the College will be sharing apprentice success stories across all social channels via @WeAreESCG. Keep an eye out and make sure you use #NAW2024 in any relevant posts you share!
