We are delighted that David Way, Director of the National Apprenticeship Service, will speak at our special session on ‘Apprenticeships and the road to recovery’.
The recent Education Bill has confirmed that the Coalition Government will raise the participation age to 18 by 2015. David will talk about expanding participation in this context. In addition he will cover topics such as the role of apprenticeships in reducing 18-24 youth unemployment (now over half a million in England), and the way in which income contingent loans for adult apprentices (over 24 on Level 3 and Level 4 programmes) will change the relationships between employer, apprentice and the taxpayer. Seminar participants will have the opportunity to question David on these topics and discuss the issues.
Tricia Hartley, Chief Executive of the Campaign for Learning, will chair the session.
Please note, all Campaign for Learning policy seminars are conducted under the Chatham House Rule to encourage openness and the sharing of information.
Discounts are available for voluntary sector organisations and sole trading consultants, please contact Katie Bloom for further details.
