National Apprenticeship Week (7-13 Feb 2022) is a week-long celebration of apprenticeships across England that happens every year. It is a flagship moment in the calendar year for supporters and ambassadors of apprenticeships, uniting them and delivering consistent messages with a strong collective impact.

The theme for National Apprenticeship Week 2022 will be ‘build the future’; reflecting on how apprenticeships can help individuals to develop the skills and knowledge required for a rewarding career, and businesses to develop a talented workforce that is equipped with future-ready skills. To support National Apprenticeship Week 2022, individuals, employers, training providers and communities are being encouraged to get involved, to celebrate apprenticeships and how they: TRAIN apprentices, and future proof their workforce and careers through apprenticeships; RETAIN apprentices, gaining the skills and knowledge needed by the business, and seeing apprentices thrive, whilst having an impact; ACHIEVE a real return on investment from apprentices; realising the business benefits of apprenticeships, with apprentices progressing in their chosen careers.
