INNOVATION AND GROWTH APPRENTICESHIPS – HOW COULD THEY

INNOVATION AND GROWTH APPRENTICESHIPS – HOW COULD THEY WORK FOR YOU?

The CfA and SFEDI, in partnership with the Peter Jones Foundation, are currently organising a series of workshops with employers across the country to explore how a higher apprenticeship in innovation and growth would work and add value to the development and competitiveness of businesses, both small and large.

The workshops will explore not only how businesses currently develop understanding and skills in enterprise, innovation and growth amongst their staff but also the ways in which an innovation and growth apprenticeship scheme would work, such as induction of the apprentice, the knowledge and skills required by an apprentice, the activities they would undertake and the training and development that would be provided by the employers.

The workshop for the North East will be held in Durham on Monday 27th Februaryat The Rivergreen Centre, Aykley Heads, Durham, DH1 5TS and will run from12:00-14:00 with lunch and refreshments.

Why should you come along?

The workshop not only provides you with an opportunity to exchange experiences with a group of other employers about developing enterprise and innovative skills amongst staff and the value of apprenticeships, but also your input will be used to develop an apprenticeship scheme which meets the needs of businesses like yours in the area.

We hope that you will be able to attend the workshop and in anticipation of your co-operation, we will contact you during the next couple of days to provide further details of the workshop.

In the meantime, if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact Leigh Sear leigh.sear or Jo Lee jo.lee.
