Location: Online via Zoom
Who is this event intended for?: Everyone
What is the benefit of attending?: Learn about the changes to the government funding and provide valuable feedback and suggestions on how to challenge the changes
Following the successful introduction of the Medical Statistician Apprenticeship Scheme in 2021, the UK government have recently announced that level 7 apprenticeships must be fully funded by the employer from January 2026, for any apprentice over the age of 21. With funding for MSc's at an all time low, and universities courses facing closures, the apprenticeship scheme remains as important as ever, as a tool to encourage new statisticians into our industry. In these dedicated meetings, Valerie Millar (chair of the apprenticeship scheme) will provide full updates on the government changes and seek feedback and ideas from employers, universities and apprentices on how to keep this scheme successfully running for many years to come.
These meetings are free to both Members of PSI and Non-Members.
