Gen Z won’t wait: what apprenticeships must do differently

Gen Z
Session 4
Room Name: Chalon

Facilitator

Laura Randall & Ross Radford

Laura Randall is Group Head of Business Development for NOCN Group. Ross Radford is Apprenticeship Quality Manager for Newcastle College Group (NCG).

Join this interactive session to explore what Gen Z really wants from apprenticeships – and how providers can respond. Through live polling, a real learner case study, and facilitated discussion, we will challenge common myths and share practical insight into engagement, retention and learner expectations.
We will also reflect on current sector changes, including Foundation Apprenticeships and evolving assessment approaches, and what they mean in practice.

Delegates will leave with clear, actionable ideas to better connect with Gen Z learners and improve outcomes.
