We recognise the best employers in the UK for engineering apprenticeships with an employer accreditation – and help any company to get there…

“To know that your employer cares as much about your apprenticeship experience as you do, I find very reassuring. For someone leaving school or college, knowing your employer has received this accreditation means you can trust that you are going into your career with an employer that will deliver on what you are promised”
Jacob Church, Engineering Apprentice, Teledyne E2V

In short… any engineering and manufacturing company that:
- Wants to learn how to run a great apprenticeship scheme
- Aims to become an employer of choice for aspiring engineers
- Is passionate about inspiring the next generation
