The Cast - National Apprenticeship Week Special

In this special edition of The Cast, we explore the benefits of Apprenticeships to the sport and physical activity sector, both for people looking to start or progress their career, and for employers.

Colin Huffen, Associate Director of Policy and Professional Services at CIMSPA discusses how the sector is building a strong foundation of Apprenticeship opportunities and the benefits that organisations can harness by offering Apprenticeship pathways for new entrants to the sector and as part of career progression.

Jack Garner, Regional Director at Serco Leisure, explains how Serco has embraced Apprenticeships across their operations and the benefits that it is bringing for recruiting and retaining great team members and how it is helping to develop people across the business.

And finally Paul Thompson, Director of People and Learning at Coach Core, shares how they, as a training provider, are working with large and small organisations to provide Apprenticeship opportunities that are helping young people from challenging backgrounds gain fantastic experiences and develop strong skills, helping them to get their career in the sector off to a great start.
