The Ambassador Network (AAN) is a volunteer network of employers and apprentices championing awareness and increasing engagement to meet the needs of employers, communities, and individuals across the country. Our purpose is to 'Inspire, Inform and Grow’ apprenticeships. In the East of England region, Ambassadors support and influence a wide range of key stakeholders including schools, colleges, employers and their supply chains, trade associations and employment bodies, dispelling myths and sharing their own stories of apprenticeship success.

Fabulous to have so many apprenticeship and T Level fans in a room at the National Apprenticeship and Skills Awards this event. Great event but terrible signal & WiFi, hence the late post 🤣 The East of England kicked off in style with regional rising star winner bagging the national award - take a bow Alexia Seabrook from Pizza Hut. Beth Craig achieved highly commended in the degree apprentice award and our Herts apprentice AAN lead Joshua Russell also secured highly commended in the advanced apprentice award - soooo well deserved (captured in the clip!). Finally congrats to regional supporter Bobby Ramsay on more than one recognition this evening. All nominee individuals and employers are superstars and should be super proud of their achievements to date 👏🏻 #SkillsAwards2024
Great to have the ambassador network represented today at the Form the Future CIC conference by co-chair Kieren Buxton and apprentice ambassador Christina Dumitriu Jackson, who is doing her bit on the panel discussing apprenticeships in People and Talent approaches. Looking forward to further take aways during the day... #apprenticeships
🤩 New apprentice ambassador Rhea Kaur Basra took the brave step of joining an ASK partner at a Hertfordshire school last night to share her apprenticeship story. Ambassadors??? - If you are an ambassador yet to support a school event, feel free to ask Rhea how she found it and I'm sure ambassadors will share any tips in the comments. - If you are an ambassador that has also told your story in schools, what is the best question you have been asked? #AAN Apprenticeships
Yesterday evening I had the privilege of attending The Highfield School to speak with the students and parents about exploring the apprenticeship route as a post-16/18 pathway. As an apprentice at DLRC Regulatory Consultancy, I shared my roles and responsibilities at work (spoiler- it's more than just making the teas!), alongside my journey discovering the apprenticeship route. I gave some insights into the application process, emphasising that sometimes it's the setbacks and rejection that fuel your success! A big thank you to the East of England Apprenticeship Ambassador Network for providing me this opportunity, and to Suzy R. for organising the event. It was greatly rewarding to share insights that I wish I'd known as an aspiring apprentice. Looking forward to attending similar opportunities in the future! #apprentice #apprenticeships #earlycareers
