Diversity in Apprenticeships

For too long, apprenticeships have been misunderstood. Unfortunately, people have different thoughts and misconceptions when they hear the word apprenticeship.

We’re committed to removing the stigma and inequalities surrounding apprenticeships. The best people to promote apprenticeships are the apprentices themselves.
