About the Awards
The Express & Star are delighted to launch the 5th Black Country Apprenticeship Awards, in association with headline sponsor Safran and supporting partner Ladder for the Black Country, to celebrate and recognise the hardworking individuals and organisations involved in apprenticeships across the region.
With 14 award categories available for nomination we will recognise the individuals who are excelling in their chosen apprenticeship programme as well as the training providers, mentors and companies who are creating the best opportunities for apprentices. Not only does winning an award mean recognition for the apprentice, but it's also a major morale boost for the company and workforce that support the apprentice.
The finalists will be invited to join us for an evening of celebration on Thursday 19th November at the Park Hall Hotel & Spa in Wolverhampton, Guests will enjoy a drinks reception, sit down meal, as well the awards themselves which promise to have you on your feet as we celebrate the Apprenticeship Stars of the Black Country.
Nominations for the Awards are invited throughout the region including Dudley, Sandwell, Walsall and Wolverhampton and should be submitted by the 1st October @ 8pm.
