Editor’s letter - Time to embrace change: As we step into the new year, we’re presented with an exciting opportunity to embrace change. This moment feels especially significant as we align with the Government’s new growth agenda. It’s a roadmap that holds immense potential, and as a vital voice in the creative sector, we’re committed to ensuring our industry’s contributions are recognised and celebrated.
In this first issue of 2025, we delve into the significant changes shaping the year ahead:
• Foundation Apprenticeships: An introduction to this new initiative and its potential to foster growth.
• The big apprenticeship survey: Insights and findings
• IfATE to Skills England: A transformative shift set to redefine skills development.
• Collaborations and partnerships: Updates on our ongoing work with Production Futures and exciting new partnerships on the horizon.
Change is at the heart of what we do—it inspires, motivates, and drives our efforts to shape a better future. This year, we’ll continue to champion the importance of apprenticeships, not just as a tool for addressing the skills gap, but as a powerful force for breaking down barriers, attracting diverse talent, and building a more inclusive industry.
Be sure to join us in this journey by signing up for our webinars, attending our events, and sharing in the celebration of all we can achieve together. Change is here—let’s embrace it.
Here’s to a year of growth, collaboration, and opportunity!
