BMet celebrates partnerships during National Apprenticeship Week

BMet College is marking National Apprenticeship Week, which begins on 9 February, by celebrating its apprentices and employer partnerships that support them across the region.

The 19^th annual awareness week continues the “Skills for Life” theme, and the week-long celebration highlights how apprenticeships help individuals develop rewarding careers, enabling employers to create a workforce with future-ready skills.

Throughout the week, BMet will present a range of captivating written and video case studies featuring apprentices, employers and staff, that showcase the real impact of apprenticeships have on their respective industries.

As part of the action-packed week, prospective learners will be able to find out more about the apprenticeships offered at the college through two Apprenticeship Discovery Evenings. The events will take place on the 12^th February between 5pm-6:30pm and will held at James Watt College, focusing on business and professional services, construction and engineering pathways, and Matthew Boulton College, focusing on dental and pharmacy pathways.
