Expanding Apprenticeship Opportunities in Schools

I am writing to invite you and your colleagues to attend a conference with the theme of Expanding Apprenticeship Opportunities in Schools. This will be held at the Mercure Maidstone Great Danes Hotel, 8:30am for a 9:00am start. The sessions are due to close by 12.30pm.

The conference aims to explore:

• how Schools can use Apprenticeships to develop their workforce
• share best practice for Schools
• promote Degree Level Apprenticeships within Schools to students and as an employer
• look at ways Schools can promote different Apprenticeships to students from Level 2 to Level 7
• launch the New Apprenticeship Toolkit for Schools.

The conference will also include:

• a focus on the different range of Apprenticeship opportunities for Schools and students
• how to support Schools with development of new Apprenticeship standards for their future needs

We will also be having a Marketplace for Apprenticeship providers.
