Having an apprentice will help your business with medium-term workforce and skills planning. Apprenticeships will allow your business to grow your own talent, developing people that are the right fit for your business. We know that rail businesses face challenges when thinking about taking on apprentices. Ultimately, these insecurities or risks prevent many businesses from taking on apprentices. As a rail membership and not-for-profit organisation, NSAR has introduced our new Apprenticeship Agency service to help you with these challenges. We can help mitigate concerns about having sufficient work in the pipeline to keep apprentices for the length of the apprenticeship, or whether there is a sufficient range of opportunities within your business to allow apprentices to meet all their training needs.

Engineering Apprenticeships: The Path to Mastery In the fast-evolving world of engineering, apprenticeships remain a cornerstone of effective training. These programs offer hands-on experience, bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical skills. Having spent 37 years in the industry, I’ve seen first-hand the transformation apprenticeships can bring. The structured learning paired with real-world application equips future engineers with the confidence and competence needed in today’s market. Investing in apprenticeships is investing in the future. What are your thoughts on their impact? #Engineering #Apprenticeships #SkillsDevelopment

Time to move on from traditional measures for vocational education? Even if apprentices don’t get their “piece of paper” at the end of a programme, the impact is still significant in over 90% of the cases. Yet too many measures are built on much more traditional education models which are primarily geared to qualifications. From day one apprenticeship learning is on the job, real-time, practical, impactful. Actually being better at your job. Growing in confidence. Gaining real-world, hands-on experience Achieving promotion and contributing more widely. Knovia ’s latest 2024 Impact Reports for Paragon Skills & Tempdent prove again the powerful learning formula that vocational education offers. Apprenticeships are so much more than simply gaining a qualification. #humanconnection #apprenticeships #impact #socialmobility #vocationaleducation #measures
