To Harlow College last night for the Apprenticeship 'Oscars'. I was asked to make a speech and give out some of the awards.
It was a very good evening: the apprentices who won the awards, top-notch and a proud time for Harlow College and Essex Council who work in partnership on their joint ground-breaking apprenticeships scheme.
Essex Council has led the way on Apprenticeships - acknowledged by Apprentice Minister, John Hayes MP. Led by Cllr. Ray Gooding and Peter Cook, the Council has part funded apprenticeships across the County - many of which are in Harlow.
In my remarks, I noted the contribution made by Harlow College and the Council, and how apprenticeships were transforming the lives of young people. You could see that by the speeches made by the apprentices, and by what they had achieved in their apprenticeship work. The recognition was richly deserved.
