WSP UK celebrated the annual National Apprenticeship Week with an event hosted in partnership with the Association for Project Management's (AMP) Yorkshire & North Lincolnshire branch.
The apprenticeships event saw WSP engage attendees in a positive and engaging discussion about the benefits of project management apprenticeships.
Providing dedicated, structured courses for apprentices
WSP apprenticeships provide a great way to combine work with study. They enable the apprentice to gain experience at the same time as taking nationally recognised qualifications and earning a salary.
WSP's apprentice development scheme is supported by its senior management and tailored to its apprentices. This ensures the opportunities provide the right support, guidance and development needed for an apprentice to prosper in their career.
A large part of learning is on-the-job practical experience and working on live projects.
WSP provides dedicated, structured courses to support apprentices during the transition from study to a business environment.
Advancing project management for public benefit
AMP, who co-hosted the WSP apprenticeships event, is a registered charity, delivering education and developing qualifications, conducting research and providing resources. AMP runs events, shares best practice and gives the project management community, both individuals and businesses, the opportunity to connect and debate. AMP's mission is to advance the science, theory and practice of project and programme management for the public benefit.
Showcasing apprenticeship opportunities
National Apprenticeship Week is a government-run event that connects UK talent to the country's top apprenticeship employers like WSP.

Push boundaries as a WSP apprentice
WSP apprentices enjoy pushing boundaries while harnessing ideas and sharing insights across a diverse, international team to create a world that's cleaner, greener and safer.
