The national rankings celebrate organisations that deliver high-quality apprenticeship programmes, recognising their commitment to creating opportunities, supporting diverse talent, and enabling successful completions.

This recognition highlights NWAS’s continued investment in apprenticeships across a wide range of roles. From frontline clinical pathways such as Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs), to corporate areas including finance, communications, ICT and project management, apprenticeships play a vital role in developing our workforce.

Carol Offer, Assistant Director of Workforce & Organisational Development, said: “We are proud to be recognised once again as a Top 100 Apprenticeship Employer. Apprenticeships are a key part of how we grow and develop our workforce, providing accessible career opportunities and supporting colleagues to build the skills they need to succeed. This achievement reflects the collective effort across the organisation to support our apprentices and create an inclusive learning environment.”

The Top 100 rankings, produced by High Fliers Research, are based on a robust, data-driven assessment of apprenticeship numbers, new starts, diversity, and successful completions.

With over 1,000 employers entering from across the UK, being named in the Top 100 demonstrates NWAS’s ongoing commitment to delivering high-quality apprenticeship programmes and supporting colleagues to learn, develop and thrive.
