National Apprenticeship Awards 2015: national finalists announced
10 Dec 2015 10:57 AM
We are pleased to announce the National Finalists in this year’s National Apprenticeship Awards.
Following the regional ceremonies in October, all of the regional winners progressed to the next stage of the competition, where their applications were assessed by a national judging panel.
The national judging panel took place on the 30 November and 1 December and both days included tough decisions and passionate debates amongst the judges.
Organised by the National Apprenticeship Service, the awards recognise excellence in businesses that grow their own apprentice talent and apprentices who have made a significant contribution to their workplace.
The national finalists will be invited to a glittering national ceremony on 26 January 2016, at Grosvenor House, London to find out if they will be announced as a national winner.
This year the National Apprenticeship Service received over 1,200 applications from companies and individuals competing for the prestigious accolades.
We would like to congratulate all the national finalists on their success.
