From The Open University:

An expert panel will discuss whether apprenticeships are an effective way of opening up opportunity in the workplace to help create a more diverse and inclusive workforce. Hosted by Anna Morrison CBE of Amazing Apprenticeships, the webinar will feature new data from an exclusive employer survey published for National Apprenticeship Week by The Open University. 

The survey will highlight the current demand for apprenticeships across England across different sectors and how they are enabling organisations to grow their own talent. It will also look at the perceptions employers have about apprenticeships and their role in driving productivity and widening access. The panel will discuss in detail how apprenticeships can unlock opportunities that may otherwise not be available to different sections of the workforce. This webinar will help you expand your thinking when it comes to delivering work-based learning and development to under-represented groups in your organisation and local community. 

The session will be run in association with The 5% Club, a dynamic movement of employer-members working to create a shared prosperity across the UK by driving ‘earn and learn’ skills training opportunities. Attendees will be able to download the full results from the survey to help them to develop an inclusive apprenticeship strategy for 2022 and beyond.
