We are delighted to welcome you to our free ‘season opener’ apprenticeship summit.
The needs of employers and the UK workforce has seen massive change in the last 18-months. Now, more than ever, apprenticeship providers need to rethink and assess the quality of what they offer and how they offer it.
Sponsored by our friends at Cognassist and hosted on Thursday 23 September from 9am – 1.00pm this online event will put your apprenticeship provision under the spotlight and help you refine your strategy for the coming academic year.
Five “lightbulb” sessions will give delegates chance to hear short sharp inputs from sector experts to challenge your thinking and practice:
- Apprenticeship strategy and the year ahead with Anna Sutton
- Business development and working with employers with Arit Eminue
- Apprenticeship curriculum with Chris Cherry
- Apprenticeship quality with Louise Doyle
- Compliance with David Lockhart-Hawkins
Delegates will then be able to choose two facilitated breakouts, to explore what this means for their role and share effective models and approaches.
At the end of the day, between 2pm and 3pm, 15-minute 1-2-1 booked surgery sessions will be available to discuss specific organisational issues (limited availability – on a first come first pre-booked served basis).
Who is this event for?
This event has been designed for those leading and managing apprenticeship training. For established providers, it will provide space to challenge and assess the quality of your provision. For those new to apprenticeships, it will help set a roadmap.
