  6. @MiaMarkTwo #Apprenticeships are the obvious way to train nurses (and other professions allied to health) but the government aren't just not funding the training, they are not funding the recruitment of nurses either.

    It does seem like we're deep in to a vicious cycle here as hospitals were also struggling to give staff the time needed to train anyway, as they get more short-staffed this situation will only be compounded.

  10. Policy dictated and implemented by a class of people who have no comprehension or compassion for families who rely on benefits to survive.

    I’ve witnessed young people struggle to continue doing apprenticeships, because their families cannot support them and their employers see individuals on this path as cheap and disposable.

  13. CW: Political Race Theory

    @CptSuperlative @pluralistic this is the #knowledge shared in stories and #apprenticeships. This is stuff machines can’t capture. This kind of #somatic #tacitknowledge is stored in #mentorships and other human relationships. This kind of sharing made the old #belllabs and makes #amateurradio fun and worthwhile despite the #whitesupremacist milieu.

  15. Why is it that all these opinion pieces that argue that going to university isn't worth it always bring up taking up a trade like plumbing as an alternative to higher education? What about industry apprenticeships? What about retail? What about cooking???

    Obviously there's nothing wrong with trades but it's so bizarre that it's either uni or plumbing - that's it, those are the two career options.

  21. Mastodon is clearly not the place to notice that there have been massive ructions in the #apprenticeships space this week with the confirmation that funding will be removed from 16 standards, including the hugely popular #TeamLeader #OperationsManager and #CharteredManager suite.

    The 10 year programme to rebrand apprenticeships as an all purpose solution to #workforce skills is being rapidly unpicked as #levy funds are being redirected to reinflating a beleaguered #FE sector.

  22. It's my 1 year anniversary at work. I have survived my first year as an educator! Everyone who told me the first year would be tough wasn't wrong! In fact, they downplayed just how tough it is. But I'm still here, and still enjoying it when it's not immensely stressful. #Teaching #FurtherEducation #Apprenticeships #Apprentices
