Employers: Apprenticeships
Volunteers who sign up to Inspiring the Future who have experience of apprenticeships or routes into apprenticeships can add this as a specialism in their ‘My Profile’ page. There is huge demand from teachers in Australia to get apprentice volunteer specialists (especially apprentices themselves) talking to young people about their job and the apprentice route.
