Earlier this week for Hull West and Hessle was elected as the Co-chair
of the All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for apprenticeships.
The APPG on Apprenticeships is a cross-party group that
constructively examines the role of apprenticeships, bringing
together Members of Parliament, Peers and interested stakeholders
to consider how they can deliver high quality apprenticeships
whilst promoting best practice.
The Group is committed to ensuring that apprenticeships, and the
policies behind them, are continuously improved by everyone
involved. The APPG aims to ensure that every apprenticeship is
delivered to the highest quality and will support the overall
development of an individual’s skillset, whilst strengthening the
UK’s future workforce.
said:
“It is a great honour to be elected as Co-Chair for the APPG for
Apprenticeships. Apprenticeships are a key sector for many people
up and down the country including in my own constituency, and I
want to ensure that every person that enters into an
apprenticeship gets the best possible training needed to gain
high skilled employment.
UK industry and business needs a high quality workforce and as
Co-Chair of this group I can do my bit to ensure both business
and workers get the absolute best deal available from
apprenticeships.
The UK faces significant challenges following the pandemic and
apprenticeships will be key to helping employment and rebuilding
the economy in my constituency and the rest of the UK”
