Unveiling the valuable personal development

In celebration of National Apprenticeship Week, we are highlighting the importance of Skills festivals, as they play a crucial role in equipping apprentices with essential tools to embark on a successful career journey.

The importance of such events, like the Midlands Skills Festival held on November 10th, lies in their focus on various aspects of apprenticeship support, ensuring an environment tailored for personal growth and empowerment.

Safeguarding Training Session:

As a primary education coach or educator, safeguarding holds significant importance in providing a secure, protective atmosphere for children. The safeguarding training session at the Midlands Skills Festival aimed to educate apprentices on the crucial need for safeguarding practices and their impact on their role. Proper safeguarding not only benefits the apprentices but contributes to the well-being of all participants – allowing everyone to embrace the joy of sports in a protected environment.

Financial Support Session:

Aspire Training Solutions played an active role in the festival by partnering with My Bnk, an organisation dedicated to providing financial guidance. Guest speaker, Chris, conducted a session specifically tailored to meet the needs of the 16-25 age group. During the session, apprentices learned about various aspects of financial management: from budgeting and saving to handling their finances with confidence.
