Automotive charity AutoRaise is celebrating National Apprenticeship Week 2023 by attending a number of careers events to help showcase the sector to the next generation.
AutoRaise has been set up to address the skills gap by promoting the industry to new talent and then pairing apprentices with repairers.
As part of this, it will attend events at Emtec Automotive College and Retford Education Centre this week, while also sharing videos, testimonials, and insights from partners, affiliated repairers, and apprentices.
Vice Chair Steve Thompson said, “We are confident that the work we have done over the past few years has benefited repairers, young people, insurers, employers, training organisations, and other industry stakeholders. As we continue to get support from the industry, our position will become increasingly crucial over time. During this significant week, we are delighted to highlight the accomplishments and successes of apprentices who are currently employed in the sector.”
National Apprenticeship Week 2023 is themed ‘Skills for Life’ to highlight how apprentices can develop the skills required for a long and rewarding career, while helping businesses develop a workforce equipped for the future.
