The Apprenticeship & Technical Education Roadshow East Bristol (Bristol Brunel Academy)

Apprenticeships have changed dramatically in the last few years and offer such exciting opportunities, but they can seem confusing to understand. These roadshows created for parents and carers, bust myths, inform, inspire and provide the answers you are seeking!

The West of England Combined Authority in collaboration with the Western Training Provider Network are embarking on a series of regional parent and carer roadshows to celebrate Apprenticeship and technical education pathways and all they can offer.

We will have an amazing panel of experts to answer questions, provoke discussion, give their views and tell their stories.

Find out more about:

• Different levels and how apprentices can progress
• Where and when to look for them, how to explore options
• How employers design them, the vast range and the number of vacancies
• The range of wages and the high value of training delivered at no cost to the student
• How successful apprentices have secured an apprenticeship offer
• How the training/education element might work and how they are quality controlled by Ofsted
• How by  choosing an apprenticeship, it doesn’t have to set your career path for  good, they could be the best way to explore career paths and gain the  real skills employers seek, work ready skills, gained through learning  by doing. Learn the theory, put it into practice, the stickiest most  powerful way to learn.
• How  students can apply for as many as they would like, alongside college  options or University choices and make their own minds up on the best  offer, which suits their needs.
• How some students complete an apprenticeship then start University later on, more focused (and with some savings)
