National Apprenticeship Week 2021

National Apprenticeship Week 2021 will take place from 8 to 14 February 2021.

Amazing Apprenticeships is a leading organisation in the education sector, founded to tackle misconceptions about apprenticeships and promote the benefits.

As experts on apprenticeships and vocational education, we influence the way that apprenticeships are perceived and drive forward innovative and creative work in England and internationally, to ensure that more individuals and businesses can access the benefits of apprenticeships.

We actively help and support a variety of audiences to navigate apprenticeships by:

  • Working with schools and colleges to understand their challenges in positioning apprenticeships as a credible option for their students.
  • Creating, testing and distributing a wide range of resources and activities for educators to use with students and their families.
  • Working with employers to understand their recruitment processes and supporting them to share this information with individuals to help to widen participation.
