Preparations are well underway for National Apprenticeship Week 2012, taking place from 6 to 10 February 2012. The Week has been a tremendous success over the last four years and 2012 will be even bigger.

National Apprenticeship Week is the time when all eyes are on Apprenticeships and it’s all about raising the profile amongst employers, individuals, teachers, parents and the media.

Everyone with an interest in Apprenticeships across the country is encouraged to get involved in the Week.

This could range from running and promoting your own National Apprenticeship Week themed event/activity, or by visiting one of the many events that will be taking place in your local region during the Week.
