We've developed a series of webinars for adult social care providers focussing on embracing apprenticeships.

With input from the Department for Education, employers, learning providers, and learners, these apprenticeship webinars will look at the latest changes to apprenticeships and give you valuable insight into effectively utilising apprenticeships within your organisation at all levels, and within a number of different disciplines.

Nursing apprenticeships

The Nursing Associate is still a relatively new occupation introduced into the health and care workforce to bridge the gap between health and care assistants and registered nurses. It's a stand-alone role that will also provide a progression route into the Registered Nurse Degree apprenticeship.
