Simpkins Edwards has made it through to the finals of the Exeter College Apprentice & Employer Awards in the Medium Employer of the Year category.
Exeter College celebrates their 50th year of apprenticeships this year; with Simpkins Edwards working with them for over 20 of those years.
Mary Jane Campbell, Managing Partner at the firm, commented: “We are pleased to continually invest in our relationship with Exeter College.”
“We appreciate the time and effort dedicated by the College to ensure that the programmes on offer are suitable, worthwhile and meet the needs of the awarding bodies and our ever-changing industry. We value the apprenticeship route highly, as it provides our people with the opportunity to further education whilst earning a salary and gaining workplace experience not offered by most degree courses.”
Twenty percent of the firm’s workforce currently undertakes additional study, nine of those being apprentices with Exeter College.
Mary Jane added: “As our business needs grow, we have extended the range of apprenticeships we offer, and we recently employed our first IT apprentice. We work hard to provide our apprentices with exposure and insight into the working world in a supported environment.”
