Council Leader, Cllr Miles Parkinson, said; “We’ve already run two successful apprenticeship events, attended by over four hundred young people and filling many local apprenticeship vacancies. Lots of businesses have already signed up and we’re looking for more businesses with real apprenticeship opportunities to come and promote them at the event.”
Training providers and businesses from across Hyndburn and beyond who are already signed up, include; Training 2000, NLTG, Accrington and Rossendale College, Themis, BAE Systems, Hyndburn Homes, LCC, Age UK, 247 Home Rescue, Hyndburn Borough Council and Scott Dawson Advertising.
The event is aimed at anyone, of any age, who may be thinking about an apprenticeship. Attendees will be able to find out more about apprenticeships direct from employers and training providers, seek expert advice and get one-to-one support in applying for apprenticeship vacancies.
There will be real live vacancies on offer, along with the chance to apply for apprenticeships and have an interview with potential employers on the day.
Council Leader, Cllr Miles Parkinson, said; “An apprentice learns on the job, and is able to gain qualifications by learning new skills, whilst earning money at the same time. The Hyndburn Apprenticeship event is a fantastic opportunity for anyone who is interested in becoming an apprentice. Attendees will not only be able to try their hand at a range of skills and trades, but also apply for real vacancies and have an interview with potential employers actually on the day.”
