EMPLOYER & LEARNING PROVIDER PRESS RELEASE

The Multicultural Apprenticeship Awards 2023 in partnership with Pearson employer and learning provider finalists have been released and Steps Together has been shortlisted for the Employer of the Year Award 2023.

This year, all records were broken with over 450 nominations being submitted, of which over 350 were apprentices from over 250 different employers. Organisations range from household names and blue chip companies, to small, medium and micro-enterprises across all sectors. Steps Together has fought off some very tough competition to become a finalist.

The Multicultural Apprenticeship Awards in partnership with Pearson showcases the outstanding work and achievement of apprentices from multicultural backgrounds in Britain and inspires other apprentices to reach their full potential. The awards are organised by Pathway Group, who aim to close the diversity gap in apprenticeships by supporting apprentices and working with employers to make meaningful change.

The awards platform has been instrumental in creating future leaders and ambassadors for apprenticeships and has brought to the forefront key issues surrounding the need for more diversity within certain sectors.

Winning employers have showcased their diversity and inclusion strategies and how it’s helped them to shape an inclusive and diverse work environment as best practice examples for other organisations to follow suit.

“We’re not just here to celebrate apprentices, but also the people that employ and train them. Best of luck in the process and congratulations to all this year’s finalists!” said Safaraz Ali, founder of The Multicultural Apprenticeship Awards & CEO of Pathway Group
