Recognising Multicultural British apprentices, their employers, and learning providers.
The awards now in their 8th Year have been able to recognise over 1,500 apprentices from diverse backgrounds working in various sectors across the UK. As well as celebrating the talent and diversity that exist within our apprentices, the awards also recognise, Employers, Universities, Colleges and Independent Training Providers that support them through this process.
Despite the fact that apprenticeships still have a long way to go in achieving full diversity, inclusion, and equality, there have been significant developments and achievements being made on a daily basis.
The Multicultural Apprenticeship Awards 2023 aims to support and enhance the ongoing commitment to change. We are proud to be part of this movement and strive to promote diversity among future leaders and ambassadors for apprenticeships.
The awards consist of multiple industry-specific categories for both apprentices and employers, as well as a separate award for learning providers and universities.
The deadline for nominations is set for Friday, April 28th, 2023.
Showcasing the following categories which are open to both apprentices and employers:
Accounting & Finance

“I am absolutely thrilled with the impact the awards has had on the sector, and how they have evolved in line with a changing world, but the core purpose remains. Our purpose is to raise awareness of apprentices and celebrate the best of them. In doing this we hope to increase the take up of apprenticeships by people from minority communities and we encourage all employers, learning providers and apprentices to get involved.”
