Gamesley Apprenticeship Event
Wednesday afternoon saw an event in the Geoffrey Allen Centre aimed at encouraging more young folk to sign up to become apprentices.
The event which featured stalls and speakers from the National Apprenticeships, DLDC, Careers Guidance DCC, DACES Childcare DCC, Juniper Training, Derbyshire Chamber of Commerce, Tameside PCT, UK Training, DCC Glossop MAT Team, Tameside College, Buxton College, Jobcentre Plus Glossop, Casey Construction, and High Peak Borough Council, was attended by not far short of 100 people with around 40 plus people signing up to the national apprenticeship website.
If you weren’t able to attend the event but would like to know more you can contact connexions on 01298 22322 or register on the website at www.apprenticeships.org.uk
My only hope is that in the current financial climate with the seemingly never ending cuts wanted by the current government, is that there will be enough apprenticeships available locally for all the folk who want them.
