Nominations are open for the North Midlands and South Yorkshire Apprenticeship Awards
Derbyshire’s amazing apprentices will be celebrated at the second annual North Midlands and South Yorkshire Apprenticeship Awards this May.
The event, organised by the Derbyshire Times and its sister titles The Sheffield Star, Mansfield Chad and Doncaster Free Press, aims to celebrate and recognise the hardworking individuals and organisations involved in apprenticeships and how they shape our future.
Apprenticeships in Chesterfield are an excellent way of gaining qualifications whilst getting real life work experience and being paid for it – what better place to become an apprentice or find an apprentice than the UK’s first Apprentice Town.
There are currently more than 4,000 people currently participating in apprenticeships in Chesterfield. So if you are an apprentice who is doing great things – or you work with someone who is worthy of one of the awards award – it is worth nominating yourself for an award.
The awards will be presented on May 15 at the Showroom Cinema and Workstation in Sheffield, as part of a gala evening which will be hosted by Ashleigh Porter-Exley, winner of the final series of the BBC’s Young Apprentice programme.
The closing date for applications is Thursday, March 29.

Chesterfield’s commitment to apprenticeships and the future of its young people is being demonstrated with the launch of a new website.
To mark National Apprenticeship Week 2018 (5 – 9 March 2018) the Apprentice Town website is being launched where job seekers will be able to find apprenticeship opportunities available in the town.
Currently, there are more than 50 apprenticeship vacancies within the town being advertised on the website in a wide range of sectors, including business management, animal care, IT, hospitality and childcare.
