Why Exhibit

Learn from Education and Apprenticeship Providers

The Skills & Employability Summit provides a platform to learn about where the UK Government will be investing money next in the skills and employability sector.

This unique opportunity provides a chance to hear from relevant case studies from both education and apprenticeship providers. Every year we bring together a selection of key speakers to address the changes to funding, policy, structure and strategy surrounding the areas that encompass young people, apprentices and school leavers as well as adult learners and those looking to return to employment.
