Apprenticeships have changed. With more than 200 types of apprenticeships across many industry sectors, from finance, to law and engineering, to science, retail and to healthcare, there is an apprenticeship out there for you.

Apprenticeships are real jobs and real careers with training. As paid employees, apprentices earn a wage and learn on the job while also attending college and working towards nationally recognised qualifications.

Do you know an inspiring individual who has done something to make a difference? Then why not enter them into our awards? You can enter only one person in each category.

The categories are:
Volunteer of the year - Do you know someone who volunteers their time to improve their community or the lives of those around them?

Community Project of the year - Are you a community or voluntary group who works together to provide services or activities that enrich your community? Have you been involved in a great project funded by our community grant?
