Acorn was proud to support National Apprenticeship Week, which took place across England and Wales from Monday 6th to Friday 10th February 2012.  This event was dedicated to celebrating the skills and enthusiasm apprentices bring to organisations.

• 89% of organisations view apprentices as key to the future success of their business

Apprentices deliver the relevant skills for your specific industry needs, so you can keep pace with new technology and changing markets.

• 88% cite apprentices as contributing to a more satisfied workforce

Apprentices are motivated, keen to learn, and have chosen to learn within your company. This enthusiasm and energy has a positive impact on everyone.

• 76% Consider apprentices to be a real boost to productivity

Training apprentices can be more cost-effective than hiring pre-trained staff, reducing recruitment costs and helping your business to be more productive and profitable.
