Kate Chester, researcher for the National Housing Federation (NHF), visited the head office of leading UK housing provider Sanctuary Group last Friday, 29th January, to learn more about the organisation’s apprenticeship programme.
Kate’s visit formed part of the NHF’s research project, funded by the National Apprenticeship Service, which aims to analyse the level of engagement that registered social landlords (RSL) are having with these trainees. It also coincides with the Government’s national apprenticeship week (1st to 5th February) established to celebrate the talents and skills of apprentices across England.
As part of the visit, Kate met with current Sanctuary apprentices to hear their experiences first hand and also learned about the Group’s ambitious plans to create further schemes across the country.
Sanctuary is investing in a new UK-wide apprenticeship programme which will help provide support to different business operations across the Group. Successful candidates will take part in specially designed programmes, which will give them the opportunity to study for practical qualifications and gain on the job experience whilst building their confidence and self esteem.
Sanctuary’s Group Chief Executive David Bennett, said: “Sanctuary is committed to providing employment and training opportunities which allow people to achieve their full potential and our apprenticeship programmes are one of the ways we can achieve this.”
Sanctuary will be working in partnership with other local organisations over the coming months to create further apprenticeship schemes.
