Celebrating Outstanding Achievement at the North Bank Apprenticeship Awards 2026 

We were delighted to host a fantastic evening on 10 February for this year’s North Bank Apprenticeship Awards, celebrating the exceptional achievements of apprentices and the dedication of employer partners from East Riding College and Scarborough TEC.  

Held during National Apprenticeship Week, the awards shined a spotlight on the employers who demonstrate remarkable commitment to supporting apprentices at every stage of their journey. It also provided us with a chance to recognise our apprentices, their hard work and determination, and the impact they are already making across a wide range of industries.
