Apprenticeship Week 2010

EDM number 778 in 2009-10, proposed by David Willetts on 02/02/2010.
Categorised under the topic of Training.

That this House believes that apprenticeships are a valuable source of training and work experience; believes that apprenticeships have a vital role to play in tackling rising youth unemployment; regrets that the number of new apprentice starts for those aged under 25 years is falling; calls on the Government to do more to encourage apprenticeships during the recession; further calls on public sector organisations to consider where they can offer greater numbers of apprenticeships; and welcomes National Apprenticeships Week as an opportunity to celebrate the success of apprenticeships across the country.

This motion has been signed by a total of 37 MPs.
