Restaurant Youth Registered Apprenticeship. (RYRA) Like many people, I started working in the industry in a dish room. My son just started at a place we love, doing the same. I asked him how he felt after his first shift. He said he liked it, and specifically he mentioned he has a good manager and trainer. Many of us Gen Xers learned what we know now - through the informal mentorship of chefs and managers. Back at the turn of the century, I wish 17-year-old David had understood apprenticeship and that it was an option. Instead I put my head down and started washing dishes, and it was the beginning of a fantastic journey. There is so much supported professional development available for newcomers to the industry in 2024. Apprenticeships are also available to people who have enjoyed successful employment and want to add formalized knowledge, skills, and abilities to their craft. Apprenticeships provide access to information and education that propels people up the ladders of promotion and economic mobility. We know this. Apprenticeships are cool like that. Line Cook?

Exciting developments in Scotland's shipbuilding industry! Recent data shows a significant rise in employment, with naval work directly employing over 7,000 people and providing 1,000 apprenticeships. Babcock International Group and BAE Systems are at the forefront, with Babcock currently having 180+ apprentices and 3,500 employees, and BAE Systems recruiting almost 2,700 apprentices and graduates across the UK, with construction underway on a new £12m Applied Shipbuilding Academy in Glasgow. These investments highlight the industry's commitment to skill development and job creation. David Lockwood, CEO of Babcock, emphasised the importance of apprenticeships in sustaining technical skills for critical national defence programmes: “We were delighted to host the Minister for Defence Procurement, James Cartlidge MP, at our Rosyth site ahead of Scottish Apprenticeship week. Apprenticeships play a really important role in workforces across the UK, ensuring we can sustain the technical skills needed to continue to deliver critical national defence programmes, while offering exciting opportunities with direct benefits to local communities.” Simon Lister, Managing Director of Naval Ships at BAE Systems, highlighted the role of world-class facilities in training a top-notch workforce: " "We have a proud tradition of equipping our apprentices with the skills and training needed to develop long and rewarding careers. They are the next generation of shipbuilders that will design and build ships for the Royal Navy for decades to come. Training a world-class workforce requires world-class facilities. That’s why, as well as our new Ship Build Hall, we are building our new Applied Shipbuilding Academy here in Glasgow, working closely with our regional partners to build sector skills.” #defencejobs #royalnavy #maritimejobs #navaljobs #nationaldefence
