Medway Council Apprenticeships

 



It's National Apprenticeship Week

This is Paige Maryott – Child Health Apprentice and Apprentice of the year

"Becoming apprentice of the year has been a really good way of being recognised for my work and has given me a real confidence boost. I feel like by deciding to do this apprenticeship I have developed many skills that I may not have if I had gone to collage/Uni.
 
I feel that by doing this apprenticeship it has given me the opportunity to put any skills I have learnt into practice in real situations".


As an apprentice with us you'll get the opportunity to learn from experts in their field and gain insights that can only come from real work experience. You'll be encouraged and supported to realise your potential.

Veterans Dashboard Launched


First-of-its-kind veterans dashboard launched as new census data emerges​​

The Veterans Data Dashboard from the Office for Veterans’ Affairs, allows the public to scroll through data in areas such as population, housing, mental health and employment.

The dashboard will provide a snapshot to the public, veterans and service providers so they can learn about the community, as well as the different services offered by the government to support veterans.

It comes as the Office for National Statistics released new data from the 2021 Census on the veteran population. The data covers areas such as age, health, gender and ethnic and religious breakdown.​
