As someone who works in #apprenticeships I’m struggling with this plan. The funding for degrees is driven by personal student loans paid off over long periods. The #apprenticeshiplevy is applied to businesses via PAYE, so the two mechanisms are mutually exclusive.

Delighted to be partnering with the #UKInnovationCorridor on an event sharing information about how #ARU #apprenticeships help to bridge the #skillsgap and grow businesses faster.

I made a dumb little meme to try & prompt a bit of conversation about how to bridge the #skillsgap with #Apprenticeships

I really want to connect with #UK folk who need #DataScientists (including #Bioinformatics & #ComputationalBiology) #LabScientists #SeniorLeaders #DigitalMarketers & #Managers

I hear a lot about #skills shortages, but see less action to address them.

I've got access to a big part of the puzzle, but I need exceptional partners to work with on it.

Rationing access to apprenticeships is increasing the UK’s skills deficit

Places for vocational training should be funded in the same way as degrees and match demand from young learners
