College gears up for national apprenticeship week
'The college will host an apprenticeship information evening on Thursday, February 10.'
As national apprenticeship week approaches, Cambridge Regional College is preparing to celebrate the apprenticeship scheme with current apprentices, future apprentices and the employers that work with the college to provide apprenticeship opportunities.
The 15th national apprenticeship week, which will take place from February 7 to 13, will celebrate apprenticeships, highlighting the positive impact they have on individuals, businesses, and the wider economy.
Apprenticeships enable individuals to acquire valuable practical skills, experience, and recognised certification in their chosen sector while providing an opportunity for employers to take control of their workforce development through customised training, building a team with future-ready skills.
Over the course of the week, Cambridge Regional College has a range of activities planned to celebrate apprenticeship success, while supporting the next generation of apprentices and employers looking to recruit the best candidates into their businesses.
Current apprentices will benefit from masterclasses delivered by industry experts in their field of study, including head pastry chef at Nomad, London, and beauty brand ambassadors.
In addition, the apprentice commis chef team will lead on a charity bake sale, showcasing their skills, while raising funds for the Trussell Trust, Cambridge City food bank.
Based on the 2022 theme of 'build the future', the college will reflect on how apprenticeships can help individuals to develop the knowledge and skills required for a successful career.
Student testimonials and ‘where are they now’ case studies will demonstrate the positive journey former apprentices have taken since completing their apprenticeship.
To further support those considering an apprenticeship as their next step, the college will host an apprenticeship information evening on Thursday, February 10.
The event will include a Q&A session with an expert panel, including former apprentice Nicole Stimson and Sky Revolution, who are actively seeking apprentices for their Cambridge based office.
