National Apprenticeship Week

6-10 March 2017

CILEx is supporting National Apprenticeship Week (6 – 10 March 2017) which is now in its tenth year.

National Apprenticeship Week (NAW) is co-ordinated by the National Apprenticeship Service and will celebrate the success of apprenticeships over the last decade and seek to encourage even more people to choose apprenticeships as a fast-track to a great career.

The objective of National Apprenticeship Week 2017 (NAW 2017) is to increase awareness and take-up of apprenticeships and traineeships by:

• Recognising apprenticeships as a ladder of opportunity to a brighter future and showing that they are available for all
• Celebrating the benefits apprenticeships bring to employers and the impact apprentices can have on businesses and the wider economy
• Celebrating 10 years of National Apprenticeship Week and the impact apprentices have made over that time.

The overarching theme for National Apprenticeship Week 2017 is ‘Ladder of Opportunity!’– focusing on the progression routes of apprenticeships, from traineeships through to higher and Degree apprenticeships.
