Taking place from 9 to 15 February 2026, National Apprenticeships Week is a nationwide, week-long celebration of the positive impact that apprenticeships make to individuals, employers and the wider economy. We are marking National Apprenticeships Week with a series of case studies of Imperial staff who have built new skills and knowledge by completing an apprenticeship. We are also running several events and activities:
