Grow your own skilled workforce

Apprenticeships are proven to be good for business.  They provide measurable benefits, add productive, enthusiastic, loyal people to your team and demonstrate to your customers and suppliers your commitment to investing in your business.  Best of all they help young people to get jobs.

This event presents an opportunity to meet and network with employers and young people with direct experience of the benefits accrued by those engaged in the various schemes on offer.  There will be representatives from many of the agencies that can tell you about Government incentives to support employers and how to go about recruiting apprentices.  This is your opportunity to learn from the experiences of other employers and have your questions answered by the organisations that can help you.

Join us to find out how you can:

• Fill your skills gap
• Improve your bottom line
• Motivate your workforce
• Obtain funding towards training costs
• Receive a contribution towards salary costs
• Benefit from a free vacancy matching service
