Next Gen Makers helps UK Manufacturing & Engineering firms to run winning Apprenticeship Schemes via benchmarking, best practice sharing & Kitemark Accreditation. Through our Engineering Apprenticeships: Best Practice Programme and employer Kitemark initiative, our goal is to enable engineering & manufacturing firms of all sizes to deliver the best possible apprentice experience whilst becoming great at attracting and retaining skilled apprentice talent. In collaboration with our strategic partner Make UK, our ‘Engineering Apprenticeships: Employer Kitemark’ recognises exemplar employers of engineering apprentices; helping young people to make more informed choices on where they pursue their apprenticeship, whilst enabling excellent employers to get recognised and stand out in the competitive world of attracting young talent.
