With the importance Sykes places on apprenticeships, we organised an event in collaboration with our client City of London Corporation on apprenticeships and skills retraining at Guildhall Events. Patrick Wallis provided a fascinating talk on apprenticeship in early modern London, while Tim Allison detailed the current landscape of apprenticeships and skills retraining in engineering and technology. After the presentations, the attendees engaged in a discussion towards solutions in improving the appeal of apprenticeships and skills retraining.

The whole event brought value to how we think about the position of apprenticeships in the industry.
