Best Practice Network has been selected as a finalist in the prestigious FE Week and AELP AAC (Annual Apprenticeships Conference) Awards for 2024. This recognition follows the company's previous triumph as the Education and Childcare Apprenticeships Provider of the Year in 2023, highlighting our sustained commitment to excellence and dedication to apprentices in the education sector.

Established in 2017 as a collaborative effort between FE Week and the Association of Employment and Learning Providers (AELP), the AAC Apprenticeship Awards are a beacon of celebration for excellence in apprenticeship delivery across the UK. The awards provide a platform to acknowledge and honour the outstanding contributions made by employers and providers in the realm of apprenticeships.

Best Practice Network's nomination as a finalist in the 2024 AAC Apprenticeship Awards not only signifies our dedication to apprentices and the education sector but also highlights the company's remarkable achievements since securing the title of Educational and Childcare Apprenticeships Provider of the Year in 2023. We have since welcomed over 2000 apprentices onto apprenticeship programmes, introduced a groundbreaking Postgraduate Teacher Apprenticeship for primary and secondary schools, and collaborated with numerous early years settings to offer tailored support in training and recruitment. This ongoing commitment and impactful initiatives underscore Best Practice Network's pivotal role in advancing the field of apprenticeships.

Commenting on the finalist announcement, Simon Little, Managing Director at Best Practice Network, expressed enthusiasm, saying, "We are honoured to be recognised as a finalist in the FE Week and AELP AAC Apprenticeship Awards for 2024. This acknowledgment reinforces our commitment to advancing apprenticeship delivery and contributing to the overall excellence in education. We look forward to the ceremony and the opportunity to celebrate the achievements of the apprenticeship community."

The national awards ceremony, a focal point of the Annual Apprenticeship Conference Gala Dinner, is where the winners of the AAC Apprenticeship Awards will be revealed. Best Practice Network, along with other finalists, anticipates this momentous occasion to celebrate and showcase the collective achievements and advancements in the apprenticeship sector.

As Best Practice Network continues to uphold the highest standards in apprenticeship delivery, our recognition as a finalist in the FE Week and AELP AAC Apprenticeship Awards further solidifies our position as a leading force in shaping the future of apprenticeships in the UK. We eagerly await the awards ceremony, poised to contribute to the ongoing excellence in apprenticeship programmes.
