The STEM Hub embraced National Apprenticeship Week 2024, 5th-11th February, by providing a week long programme of live talks linking to this year’s theme ‘Skills for Life’, delivered by STEM Ambassadors from across the South East.
We were delighted to reach around 4,000 secondary students with valuable careers advice from STEM Ambassadors working within a range of STEM sectors including aviation, healthcare, construction, transport, measurement science, engineering and technology.
Our speakers, included apprenticeship mentors, hiring managers and apprentices who talked about their experiences, acquired skills and consequential career pathways.
The live talks took place on Microsoft Teams Live allowing for an interactive question and answer session following each talk. Students were able to question the apprentices and mentors on everything from real life views on what it’s like to be an apprentice, to what entry requirements and work experience would help them to gain an apprenticeship placement and how to make their applications stand out.
If you were unable to join us for the live events, these inspirational talks are now available to watch on demand on our National Apprenticeship Week 2024 page
