The Importance of Apprenticeships or Apprenticeships and Workplace Development

Warwick nursery has embedded apprenticeships as part of their workforce development and succession planning. Debbie Castle, Nursery Manager, tells us why apprenticeships are so important

“We have found having apprentices in the nursery a true asset; it is good to have people eager to learn our trade, they bring fresh ideas back from their day in college and it also offers my qualified practitioners a CPD opportunity to line manage someone, something they might not otherwise have an opportunity to do. I also have the satisfaction of knowing that, as an outstanding setting, we are giving them the best possible experience to enhance their training.”

There are many amazing apprenticeship stories here at Warwick and we are very proud of their achievements and the impact they are having at our University.
