FAQs

What is National Apprenticeship Week?
National Apprenticeship Week is a week-long celebration that brings together employers, apprentices and aspiring apprentices. From Monday 10 to Sunday 16 February 2025, there will be many career events, information sessions and recruitment opportunities you can access.
Who is this event for?
This event is designed to provide information about apprenticeship to young people aged 15 to 18 and their parents/carers.
I’m under 16, can I attend this event on my own?
Under 16’s are very welcome to come along with a parent or carer to discover what opportunities may be available to them in the future, and chat about what steps might be useful to take over the next few years.
I am a parent/carer of a young person, can I attend this event without them?
Although we’d love to hear from young people directly, we also welcome parents and carers who want to find out more about apprenticeship on the behalf of the young people they have under their care.
