Nationally, 26% of employed people work in the Public Sector, yet only 10% of apprenticeship programmes are accessed by sector employees. The challenge is to narrow this gap.
To meet this challenge, get yourself an Account Manager from Job Centre Plus. Contact Val Frow via email - val.frow@jobcentreplus.gsi.gov.uk . Alternatively visit the Apprenticeships web site at : http://www.apprenticeships.org.uk
