Increasing City of Manchester Apprenticeship Registrations (IAR)

11 Apr 2013 - 14:25 by michelle.foster

The National Apprenticeship Service (NAS) website is the “Gateway” to all apprenticeship opportunities as both the notifications of new vacancies and applications for those vacancies flow via the NAS website. With that in mind, young people need to be “In It To Win It!” so to speak. Manchester City Council need to ensure Manchester young people are registered on the NAS website if they are to take advantage of the apprenticeship opportunities we are creating in the City, therefore we are looking to increase NAS registration activity for 16 – 18 year olds.
