Want to get involved in 'Apprenticeships on Tour'?

How can you get involved in ‘Apprenticeships on Tour?’

 
The National Apprenticeship Service East Midlands is planning a summer tour to showcase the breadth and benefits of Apprenticeships to young people, parents and carers. 

The tour will be visiting over 45 venues across the region this summer and if you’d like to get involved we’d love to hear from you - by working with our partners we can make the tour a real success by increasing awareness and take up of Apprenticeships.

‘Apprenticeships on Tour’ will use 2 buses specially kitted out with lap tops, internet access, interview rooms, and quiet areas enabling visitors to:

  • Use Apprenticeship vacancies to register, search and apply for jobs
  • Talk to Apprenticeship experts about the types and benefits of Apprenticeships
  • Understand how apprentices are employed and can progress their careers whilst earning.
