The Pledge-o-meter, an online tool for businesses to share their apprenticeship and traineeship pledges in the run up to National Apprenticeship Week is now live. It is designed to record the commitments employers make to take on apprentices and trainees, with commitments pledged from now and until the end of National Apprenticeship Week 2016.
Last year businesses pledged 23,000 apprenticeships during National Apprenticeship Week, an increase from 20,000 the previous year. This year we want to encourage even more businesses to share their pledges using our online Pledge-o-meter.
We are also using our online events map to track events and activities so you can see what is happening near you. If you are running an event for National Apprenticeship Week, please submit information using our online form so that we can include it on the map and let everyone else know what you are doing.
