Win a 2 week apprenticeship taster with the Derbyshire Times
A competition has been launched by the Derbyshire Times and Learning Unlimited (part of the Chesterfield College group) to offer one talented young person the opportunity to try an apprenticeship within the local media.
Designed to coincide with National Apprenticeship Week, which takes place from 14th – 18th March, the lucky winner will enjoy a 2-week ‘apprenticeship taster’ with the digital team at the Derbyshire Times’ head office in Chesterfield.
The Derbyshire Times is looking for a passionate young person who believes they can make an impact with captivating articles and social media posts which will get people talking. The team is inviting anyone who will be between the age of 18 and 24 by the start of the summer holidays* to enter.
Apprenticeships are now offered in over 250 professions and so Learning Unlimited and the Derbyshire Times are getting behind the campaign to show how being an apprentice could be the right way to get the training and experience needed to kick start a huge range of careers in roles such as social media, marketing, healthcare and engineering.
There will be a competition workshop on 21st March from 4 -5pm at Chesterfield College where the editor and digital manager from the Derbyshire Times will give entrants a project brief and a chance to find out more about what they are looking for. To register to go along to the workshop email apprenticecomp@learningunlimiteduk.com with your name, age, and why you want the chance to do the apprenticeship taster.
