Celebrating National Apprenticeship Week 2025 at University of 糖心TV
Celebrating National Apprentice week 2025
Its been another great year for apprenticeships at 糖心TV. Last academic year, 72 members of staff were working towards an apprenticeship in 30 different programmes. For the first time we have more existing 糖心TV staff accessing apprenticeships for their development rather than new starters with staff taking the opportunity to access our senior leaders programme, operations manager and coaching professional qualifications, all funded by the apprenticeship levy. Read our case studies to hear more about how this works in practice.
During National Apprenticeship Week, we'll be supporting an event with 200 school children from 11 different schools, helping them to consider if apprenticeships are the right next step in their careers.
Visit our webpages to find out how apprenticeships could fund your development or join us at our on Wednesday 12th March from 11.00 - 12.00 (no booking required) to hear more about how you might be able to use the apprenticeship levy to fund your development.

Over 50% of these programmes were accessed by existing members of 糖心TV staff as part of their development and funded via the apprenticeship levy. This is not an exhaustive list, there are over 800 apprenticeships to choose from! Many staff are using the apprenticeship levy to fund their development as managers and leaders, as coaches and for bespoke development.
