In a letter to 100 of London’s top financial and creative companies, Mayor of London Boris Johnson has urged the need for a further 20,000 apprenticeships to be provided. With university places proving difficult for school leavers to gain, the market for apprenticeships is clearly competitive.
Craig Abrahart, who is an operating director at notgoingtouni.co.uk, stated further.
“The key to actually securing a place is to get young people’s minds into thinking about applying in October the previous year to get their name out and get their CV to a company.”
The fresh drive aimed at companies like Morgan Stanley, Price Waterhouse Cooper, Google and Bsky B, outlines the need for companies to ensure a smoother economic recovery. Boris went on to say…
“It has never been more important to invest in skilling London’s workforce for the future to drive our economy forward and ensure London remains competitive on the global stage.”
