Events Apprenticeships

A great post from an ‘Industry Great’ the events industry is truely amazing

Some fascinating insights were published today in the evaluation of Wave 2 Skills Bootcamps - including outcomes and completions by level, sector, region, ethnicity, disability, age etc. But if you aren't compelled to read quite all 104 pages, here are three headline stats that stood out to me specifically from the research: - Who delivers Skills Bootcamps: "The majority (83%) of Skills Bootcamps were delivered by independent training providers (ITPs), with the remaining delivered by further education colleges (FE; 7%) and higher education (HE; 10%) providers." - Outcomes Rates: "Independent Training Providers (ITPs) achieved a higher outcome rate than further education (FE) colleges and higher education (HE) providers." - Completion Rates: "ITPs (64%) and FE colleges (59%) achieved higher completion rates compared to HE providers (50%)" #SkillsBootcamps #ITPs #AskAshworth AELP #WBL #SkillsMeansGrowth https://lnkd.in/eY8wt_62
