GC has been a driving force behind apprenticeships and employee development in Gloucestershire for over a decade and has been working closely with the business community to identify and promptly respond to any crucial skill gaps in the marketplace.
“It is such an honour to once again be shortlisted as a finalist”, says Julie Tegg, Director of Employer Training.
“This recognition from the panel of expert judges is testament to the outstanding quality of GC’s apprenticeship programmes and our strong commitment to our learners and the business community. We are very passionate about delivering the best possible training we can and are always looking for opportunities to foster potential and connect the best and the brightest talent with relevant employers.
“We are proud to partner with a wide range of companies who have all chosen the apprenticeship route to back local talent, achieve the best outcomes for their business and in the long run, energise the local economy. We are and will continue to promote the benefits of apprenticeships in order to bring on board more companies from in-demand yet under skilled industries like IT/Cyber Security, Engineering, Construction and Digital. And it goes without saying, how immensely proud we are of our apprentices who have achieved amazing results year on year.”
