EVENTS APPRENTICESHIPS
With the support of the whole Business Visits & Events Partnership (BVEP), the BVEP Skills, Talent & Diversity Working Group (ST&DWG) are delighted to be reigniting the official Event Apprenticeship Programme (EAP). At a time of workforce challenges, the Working Group aims to create a recognised and coordinated event apprenticeships offer across the UK events sector.
Picking up the reigns of the existing Event Assistant Apprenticeship and working alongside associated apprenticeships such as the Live Event Technician, Creative Venue Technician and Live Event Rigger, the group will work with event businesses to build a sustainable model for success.
Apprenticeships offer an accessible and alternative route into industry, supporting people from underprivileged backgrounds and minority communities with paid work, training, and education.
The Event Apprenticeship Programme is seeking industry employers to take the role of Trailblazers. Trailblazers are industry people who want to drive the apprenticeships forward, a group of employers recognised by the Institute for Apprenticeships & Technical Education and reflective of those who employ people in the occupation, including small employers. Become a Trailblazer! Get in touch.
