In celebration of National Apprenticeships Week 2025, an Apprenticeship Bus event came to Medina College today. 

Students interested in apprenticeships were invited to a speed networking event where they got the chance to speak to current apprentices from a range of different industries and professions, including Business Administration; Manufacturing; Healthcare and Engineering. 

Thank you to GKN, BAE Systems, Island Roads, HTP, Isle of Wight Council, NHS and Johnsons Electrics for allowing their apprentices to support the event.

Here is some feedback from students who attended the Apprenticeship Bus event. 

"I didn't know much about apprenticeships, but I've learnt a load about what it takes to be an apprentice - especially if it's doing something you love!"

"I think it was beneficial; it's opened my eyes to my career path in the future."

"I thought it was educational and a really good way of finding out about apprenticeships! It's a great career choice because you get paid whilst you learn."
