Enhanced standards, recognition and reward
More flexible & adaptable resource
Customer at the heart of everything that we do

Apprentices Development
All our apprenticeships have a common core of activity that is managed
centrally. This is in addition to the technical aspect of the individual programme
• Master Classes
• Development days
• Monthly drop in sessions
• Training - both face to face and on line
• Talent cycle
• You matter to us survey
• Programme sponsor meeting
• Career discussion and Personal Development Plan
• School leavers need a higher level of initial support to integrate into the
world of work but once achieved their confidence and ability grows quickly.
In addition to the above all our apprentices are supported by an Early
Careers Programme Manager.
