National Apprenticeships Week 2024

MetaGedu Apprenticeships celebrated National Apprenticeships Week 2024 in style with a series of exciting activities involving staff, students, and notable guests. Here are some of the highlights from the week:

New Offices Opening

On Wednesday, 7th February, we were honoured to welcome The Lord Mayor of Birmingham, Councillor Chaman Lal, to inaugurate our new offices in Norfolk House, Birmingham. This state-of-the-art facility, featuring office space, classrooms, and meeting areas, marks a significant milestone for MetaGedu, providing enhanced resources for our staff and students.

Apprenticeship Awards

The first annual MetaGedu Apprentice of the Year Awards was a resounding success. We received over 140 nominations from employers across various industries, all eager to celebrate their apprentices’ achievements.

 

Celebrating success in apprenticeships goes beyond simply acknowledging the completion of a programme. This is a recognition of the dedication, perseverance, and determination to develop key skills shown by all the nominees.

 

Whether it is completing a challenging project, mastering a new skill, or obtaining a certification, these achievements deserve to be celebrated. From simple acknowledgements to formal ceremonies, celebrating success in apprenticeships strengthens bonds within the apprenticeship community and inspires others to strive for excellence.

It was incredibly challenging to select just two winners from over 140 outstanding nominations. We extend our congratulations to all our apprentices who were nominated, and shortlisted, and to our final winners:
