National Apprenticeship Week

7 to 14 March 2022

We have a packed calendar of interactive online workshops to increase awareness of what is available through apprenticeships and the range of career opportunities in the construction industry, the pathways into them and advice on how young people can get a job in the industry.

There’s also a specific stream on women in construction on International Women’s Day on 8 March.

These sessions are being delivered by employees and apprentices from construction firms working in North Lanarkshire.

Pupils are asked to speak to their school to register to receive a link to each session throughout the week.

Take a look at the timetable of events below.
