Norfolk Chamber was proud to have sponsored the recent National Apprenticeship Graduation Ceremony at the St Andrew’s Hall in Norwich. The Chamber joined with parents, training providers and local employers in congratulating the graduating apprentices, who had successfully completed their apprenticeships.
Norfolk Chamber’s own Events Apprentice, Samantha Brown received her graduation scroll for completing her Level 2 Business Administration at the ceremony. Commenting on the ceremony andreceiving her scroll Sam Brown said:
“It was a great opportunity to share this evening with so many other graduating apprentices and to hear about their different qualifications. I love the fact that apprenticeships have now been recognised in this way and that we are able to graduate and be given a scroll, it gives me personally a great sense of achievement for my hard work.”
Nova Fairbank, Executive Assistant at Norfolk Chamber said:
“Over the last few years, Norfolk Chamber has recruited several apprentices, in fact those apprentices represented 25% of our workforce. Upon graduation, two have been employed permanently at the Chamber, one has gone on to undertake a Level 3 apprenticeship with us and another is half way though her Level 2 apprenticeship with us.
It is important to celebrate what a great achievement it is for those young people who are not only gaining a qualification, through lots of hard work, but from an employer’s perspective, they are also totally work ready, which is one of the key reasons why Norfolk Chamber has sponsored the National Apprenticeship Graduation Ceremony in Norwich.”
