Habia is urging hair and beauty employers to respond to the government's final consultation on the review of Apprenticeships, in what could be a once in a generation chance to change the training system in England.

The government published The Future of Apprenticeships in England: Next Steps in March 2013, which summarised their response to the Richard Review of Apprenticeships in 2012. Now the government is asking for feedback from employers on the proposals and how they can realistically be achieved.

Habia has welcomed the government's response, in particular its promise to place control of Apprenticeships more firmly in the hands of employers, and to ensure that all Apprenticeships are rigorous and meet employer needs.

And now Habia is urging employers to make sure that the views of the hair and beauty industry are heard.

Rob Young, Habia MD, said, "There is a lot in the government's response to the Richard Review that makes sense, a few challenges, but most importantly plenty of opportunities. It's important therefore that we as an industry respond, so that we can influence the decision making process and get the high quality training provision and support that employers and learners need."

He added, "This is a once in a generation opportunity to change the training system in a purposeful way. This doesn't happen very often, so employers need to seize the opportunity."

Until then...geek on!
