Green apprenticeships
Green apprenticeships give your workforce the skills needed to help to slow down the effects of climate change. All apprenticeships are affected by sustainability, but in different ways.
Skills England has set up a green apprenticeships advisory panel (GAAP) which is made up of employers, supported by other key voices in the area. Their Occupational Maps show where technical education can lead. Their green theme maps show all occupations that are relevant to green themes, and you can search for your interests by sector.
