Lincoln best council for employing apprenticeships, list reveals

Seven councils have made the Top 100 Apprenticeship Employers 2020 list.

The rankings celebrate employers who have provided the most successful apprenticeship programmes over the past year.

Lincoln City Council was the best performing local authority, coming in at 33rd on the list. Other top performing councils were Leeds City Council (47), Hertfordshire County Council (61), Medway Council (79), Chesterfield Borough Council (82), Rochdale Borough Council (83) and Durham County Council (91).

Greater Manchester Combined Authority and Liverpool City Region Combined Authority also made the top 100.

Prime minister, Boris Johnson, said: ‘High-quality apprenticeships give people from all backgrounds and ages a real choice in life, providing them with the skills employers value, which our economy needs, and which lead to better paid jobs.

’These modern employers are at the heart of levelling up our workforce, and with the extra support we are providing will help the country build back better from coronavirus.’

Why age alone shouldn’t define local government leadership

Age should never define leadership in local government, says Graeme McDonald, Managing Director of Solace. Instead, councils should invest in inclusive, skills-based development for officers and councillors to deliver effective public services.
