What's coming up

Despite the latest lockdown, it’s still a very busy time for the MTC Apprenticeships team and there’s plenty to look forward to over the next few weeks.

National Apprenticeships Week 2021

We’ve got lots of activities planned to celebrate National Apprentice Week 2021 (NAW2021), which kicks off on 8 February. Keep an eye on our social media channels to see how AMTC apprentices are helping UK manufacturing to #BuildTheFuture (this year’s NAW theme). Thank you to everyone that has taken part in case studies and interviews to help us to raise awareness of the fantastic opportunities that apprenticeships bring to businesses and learners. If you’d like to be involved in a future feature, please let us know.
