EVENTS APPRENTICESHIPS
Events Apprenticeships has been set up with the support of the Business Visits & Events Partnership (BVEP). At a time of workforce challenges, the BVEP Skills, Talent & Diversity Working Group aims to create a recognised and coordinated event apprenticeships offer across the UK events sector.
The structure of reporting is:
The Events Apprenticeships Advisory Board has been established to take on the mission of "producing an inclusive and accessible apprenticeship framework which meets the needs of the events industry, delivering skilled and confident people with a desire to succeed and contribute."
Picking up the reigns of the existing Event Assistant Apprenticeship and working with the Live Event Technician, Creative Venue Technician, Live Event Rigger, and the AV Technician apprenticeships, the Board will work with event businesses to build a sustainable model for success. The individual Trailblazer Groups, aligned to specific apprenticeships take ownership of the Occupational Standards through the Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education.
