Did you know that from 10th to 16th February 2025 is the 18th National Apprenticeship Week. This is a week-long celebration that brings together businesses and apprentices across the country to shine a light on the positive impact that apprenticeships make to individuals, businesses and the wider economy.
This year’s theme is Skills for Life. This event encourages everyone to consider and celebrate how apprenticeships help individuals develop rewarding careers, and employers to develop a workforce with future-ready skills.
A toolkit is available to support with planning activities for National Apprenticeship Week 2025. Download the toolkit here.
Last year we shared some case studies to celebrate the great work that happened throughout the year.
