The De Montfort University (DMU) Apprenticeships team will be facilitating a week-long campaign sharing subject matter expertise and success stories. We are planning a number of exciting events and initiatives which can be found below.

National Apprenticeship Week 2023 aims to highlight the exceptional work being done by employers and apprentices across the country, providing an excellent opportunity to celebrate apprenticeships and bring the whole apprenticeship community together.
