Insight into Apprenticeships Central
We were delighted to be able to extend our Insight into Apprenticeships programme in September 2019 to two schools in the centre of Bristol.
96% of students said they had a better awareness of pathways into apprenticeships
Supporting our students
This strand of the programme aims to support young Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic students to gain an insight into apprenticeship pathways. In cohorts of 12, the programme seeks to improve the self-confidence of students by developing their understanding of their own personality traits and how these relate to employer requirements. Partners include KPMG, Trinity Arts Centre and Bristol Old Vic.
"I feel more confident and comfortable around people!"
