Beyond the Grades (Alternative post 16 and 18 routes)

Find out how to kick start an exciting career without going to university and how to make yourself stand out in the application process.

Aimed at students who are about to enter Y12, Y13 or just finished A levels (16-18 year olds). Parents and teachers welcome.

You'll hear from apprentices, their line managers, recruitment professionals and the WhiteHat team. A chance to have all your questions answered, everything from how to stand out in the apprenticeship recruitment process to the advantages of doing an apprenticeship when all your friends are at uni.

Our objective is to give you a chance to hear about the amazing Apprenticeship opportunities which are out there and weigh up whether university/college really is for you, or whether an apprenticeship might be a more effective route to your chosen career.
