About South East Apprenticeship Ambassador Network
The South East Apprenticeship Ambassador Network (SEAAN) is a voluntary group of over 100 employers and apprentices committed to promoting the benefits of apprenticeships to business and school leavers across the South East.
When implemented successfully, apprenticeships have the potential to improve productivity, create a pipeline of talent and change lives of individuals.
Our Ambassadors work with a wide range of key stakeholders including schools, colleges, employers, their supply chains and trade associations to share experiences of setting up and running successful apprenticeship programmes.
If your company could do with a free impartial chat with a business leader that is experienced in employing apprentices, we can link you to a suitable mentor. Email info@seaan.org.uk for details.
Alternatively, if your organisation already employs apprentices, or you are an apprentice yourself, and want to join the network to champion apprenticeships, please apply through the SEAAN website: www.seaan.org.uk
