The Industry Apprentice Council (IAC) facilitated by Semta, is a group of apprentices who act on behalf of apprentices in the advanced manufacturing and engineering sector.
Each year they conduct a survey to find out how apprentices rate their apprenticeships, how they could be improved and what sources of support and guidance helped to inform their career choice.
The results are extensively promoted and shared with industry leaders, education bodies and government to help shape future apprenticeship policy.
The 2018 survey is open for responses from current apprentices working in the UK’s manufacturing and engineering sector and related industries, and for the first time we also want to hear from parents to find out what their views on apprenticeships are.
The survey will close on 31st July 2018 and the results will be published in September.
