A particular focus of the event will be our science and technical apprenticeship pathways, including:

We will also be showcasing additional professional apprenticeship programmes, including:
- Professional Economist
- Policy Officer
- Social Worker
- Social Researcher
The event will include refreshments, networking opportunities, apprenticeship information stalls, and a general information session covering apprenticeships, funding, recruitment support, and partnership opportunities with the University of Kent.
Whether you are looking to recruit new staff, develop existing employees, or learn more about how apprenticeships can support your organisation, we would be delighted to welcome you.
