Maritime Minister calls on companies to "double" the number of apprentices they employ

John Hayes was speaking at the Maritime Skills Alliance's reception for London International Shipping Week, held at Trinity House. He said:

Let’s not think in terms of modest incremental increases, but rise to the challenge of doubling the number of apprenticeships offered.

I want the Board of every maritime business, whether they pay the Levy or not, to discuss how apprenticeships can help them succeed by growing the next generation of talent.

The Minister was launching "Maritime Apprenticeships: your future, their future, our future", a booklet jointly published by the Department for Transport and industry lead body Maritime UK.
