WELCOME

ALLAN MILNE Director of Apprenticeships and Employer Engagement

WELCOME TO OUR AWARD WINNING APPRENTICESHIP PROVIDER - APPRENTICESHIPS AT SALFORD CITY COLLEGE

We support approximately 1,500 apprentices and collaborate with over 500 employers in the North West region. Currently, more than 35% of our apprentices work in the public sector and local authorities. We are proud to offer exceptional learning opportunities for all our apprentices, delivered by an outstanding team of specialist apprenticeship delivery staff.

The Salford City College Public Sector Leadership Programme was developed with local authorities in direct response to the strategic approach of local government. The ‘Further, Faster’ model supports collaboration and integration of public services, working together in the right geographical place for residents, focusing on proactivity, prevention, and easy access to services.

The leadership skills required to support this vision have driven the course structure and content of our Public Sector Leadership Apprenticeships. Our management associates have dedicated 200 hours to spend time with local authorities to understand what it means to be a values-based leader in the public sector.

Our approach is always people-centered and designed to support aspiring, middle, service-level, and senior leaders. The approach is flexible and innovative and can be customized to meet the needs of different local authorities while also providing opportunities for crossauthority peer learning, including networking, collaborative workshops, and our annual apprenticeship conference.
