Welcome to The National Apprenticeship Shows / 23rd-24th November 2023

Welcome to The National Apprenticeship Shows

NAS NORTH WEST PARENT FLYER 2023

The National Apprenticeship Shows exist only to promote Apprenticeships and our message is clear – Apprenticeships work for both candidates and employers alike!

These FREE to attend events showcase all levels of Apprenticeships, from entry level all the way through to Higher and Degree. This offers visitors the opportunity to engage with each region’s top Employers, Colleges, Universities, and Training Providers in a face-to-face, interactive environment.

The National Apprenticeship Shows are the perfect opportunity for School and College leavers, as well as young adults, parents and carers, to discover more about Apprenticeships across the seven regions we cover in England.

If you’re a teacher from a School or College looking to bring a group of students, head to the ‘Group Registration‘ tab to book your group.

If you’re an individual wanting to attend, head to the ‘Register‘ tab to book.

These events reach more School and College leavers, parents, carers and individuals than any other event of its kind, so if you’re an Employer or Provider looking to promote your Apprenticeship offering and recruit for your programmes, why not exhibit at one or more of our events?

If you have any questions about visiting or exhibiting, do get in touch with the team on info@nasevents.co.uk or 0203 858 7000.
