Apprenticeship Week, 7-13 February 2022: Get Involved

Apprenticeship Week is an annual week-long celebration of apprenticeships, and the value they bring to employers and learners across Wales.

Employers across all sectors are encouraged to promote the great work of their apprentices, whilst highlighting the many benefits apprentices bring to their business.

Apprentices, at all stages of their learning will also be celebrated over the course of Apprenticeship Week.

This is an opportunity for Tourism, Hospitality and Events businesses across Wales to get involved and celebrate apprentices working in the industry.

A toolkit is available with information about apprenticeships for employers and individuals, along with ideas and resources for you to use and share in support of Apprenticeship Week. Take a look at App Week 2022 Toolkit ENGLISH.pdf (gov.wales).

Ideas include -

  • Focus on an apprentice that you employ, or a former apprentice who is now a full time member of staff
  • If you have more than one, choose one apprentice per day, showcasing roles within the company, the difference apprentices have made to your team and the business as a whole
  • Create a social video, blog or social media post to share your thoughts or ask your apprentice to take over your social media channel for a day to tell their story.

However you participate, please share your activity during Apprenticeship Week via your own communication channels, including newsletters, stakeholder communications and social media - using #AWWales and #theexperiencemakers and be sure to tag us on @VisitWalesBiz / @CroesoCymruBus.
