NAW2024 on demand

February saw the return of one of our favourite annual events, National Apprenticeship Week [NAW] – and what an action-packed seven days it was. Too busy catching up on The Traitors to take part? (Naughty!). We’ll forgive you this once and, even better, here are all the best bits you might have missed.

Introduction to Apprenticeships Webinars

We kicked the festival off with two webinars starring current apprentices from Softcat, All Spring Media and other Buckinghamshire businesses. The first webinar revealed everything you need to know about apprenticeship levels 2-4, whilst the second focused on all things Level 6. You can catch up on both here.

Festival of Apprenticeships

From discovering degree apprenticeships with London South Bank University to understanding apprentices’ role in the construction of HS2, the Festival of Apprenticeships’ online careers fair showcased some of the country’s top apprenticeship employers. Luckily, all 23 talks are now available to watch online, allowing you to pick and choose the topics you’re most interested in.

The Big Assembly

Over 140,000 people across the UK tuned in for The Big Assembly. Providing a 360-degree view of the apprenticeship experience, former and current apprentices, employers of apprentices, parents and education providers were just some of the perspectives explored during the broadcast. See for yourself.
