National Apprenticeship Week Roundup 2017
March 10, 2017
There has been lots of activity for National Apprenticeship Week 2017 at Knowsley Community College. We have enjoyed busting apprenticeship myths and getting the truth about apprenticeships out to learners and employers. We also focused on our own apprentices and let them speak about their experience of earning and learning at KCC.
Apprenticeship Mythbusters
People’s perception of apprenticeships is often not true and outdated. We wanted to focus on some of the common misperceptions around apprenticeships and set the record straight for National Apprenticeship Week 2017.
Apprentice Spotlight
We spoke to some of our apprentices here at KCC about their roles within the college, the advantages of taking on an apprenticeship and their next steps, focusing on a different apprentice each day of National Apprenticeship Week and really letting them have their say.
Featured Industry
KCC and the Northern Logistics Academy are working with leading retailer Matalan to deliver a range of apprenticeships locally in Kirkby – covering logistics-focused roles such as warehousing.
