AWARDS HONOUR FOR APPRENTICES AND THEIR EMPLOYERS
Uni celebrates achievements
AN awards evening to celebrate the achievements of higher and degree apprentices has taken place at Staffordshire University.
More than 100 graduate apprentices and their employers attended the star-studded event in The Catalyst which saw award winners from Capula, Merlin Entertainment and UHNM and gave recognition to those who have gone the extra mile to champion apprenticeships.
Maighread Hegarty, Associate Dean of Apprenticeships at Staffordshire University, said: “Staffordshire University was one of the first Higher Education Institutions in England to offer apprenticeships and now we are one of the largest, working with over 200 employers from large organisations to specialist SMES.
“Our recent Ofsted inspection recognised how collaboration with employers is enhancing both development and delivery and supporting our apprentices to become skilled professionals in their field. We’re delighted to be celebrating the achievements of our talented apprentices and our successful employer partnerships.”
