Join us for a free employer event designed to cut through the confusion and show you the real benefits of hiring apprentices.

We’ll debunk the biggest misconceptions about apprenticeships and show you how they can be a cost-effective way to build talent, fill skills gaps, and boost your business.

Hear from local employers who’ve successfully integrated apprentices, speak to our team of Apprenticeship experts, and get straightforward advice on funding, recruitment, and support.

What you’ll learn:

  • How Craven College will support you all the way
  • How apprenticeships actually work (and what they don’t require!)
  • How to find the right apprentice for your business
  • Success stories from local companies just like yours
