We are delighted to be one of 65 organisations from across the UK who have been confirmed to join UK Boardroom Apprentice 2024 as Host Boards, providing a safe seat at the table for aspiring board members to learn.
What is Boardroom Apprentice?
The 12-month board learning, development and placement programme enables those who would like to serve on a public or third sector board to learn and gain the experience they need to take that step. Since its inception in 2017, 372 Boardroom Apprentices have embarked on their personal journey to serve on a public or third sector board.
Boardroom Apprentice founder Eileen Mullan said: “Boardroom Apprentice was created to deliver diversity, create change and realise aspirations. Our vision is simple – to bridge the gap between aspiration and reality.”
Successful applicants will have the opportunity to join a host board for a year to learn how they can bring fresh perspectives and diverse thinking to boardrooms across the UK. Over a 12-month window, Boardroom Apprentices will get practical board experience, a suite of learning days and support to fully equip them to serve on a board in the public or third sector in the future.
Open to those aged 18 or over from all backgrounds and abilities, the programme seeks to enable a wider diversity of individuals to play their part within boardrooms, allowing those without board experience to enhance their knowledge and understanding through in-depth learning and support.
