Apprenticeship Day (under 24s..)
[ August 16, 2010; 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm. ] Apprenticeships Day at WECH Community Centre has generated a lot of interest as we have a number of organisations attending who are actively recruiting for paid apprentices. These include positions within Crossrail, Headmasters hairdressing college, Plumbing apprenticeships, Kingsway College, the London College of Beauty Therapy and others….. We will have computers available, alongside facilitators from the National Apprenticeships Service, London Apprenticeships Company and Vital Regeneration for drop in apprenticeship search and sign up all day. Headmasters hairdressers have also offered participants vouchers for a discount haircut or styling at their exclusive salon – so you can head over to get some free pampering from them and find out first hand about the skills of the Headmasters apprentices.
