"National Apprenticeship Week (NAW 2022) is like London Fashion Week, but for apprenticeships. Think of it as a celebration of all the latest clothing trends, but instead it’s the work of apprentices, not Gucci !" as they say on the Rate my Apprenticeship website.
NAW brings together all characters from within the apprenticeship community - employers, training providers, apprentices and young people who are thinking of taking the apprenticeship path.
It takes place between the 7th and 13th of February 2022, and will be more exciting than ever. Here is everything you need to know about National Apprenticeship Week 2022. NAW 2022
