Nick Clegg hosting event for female STEM apprentices
The Deputy Prime Minister hosted the event as part of National Apprentice Week and in the run up to International Women's Day.
The Deputy Prime Minister, Nick Clegg, said:
National Apprenticeship Week gives us a good opportunity to celebrate the fantastic contribution apprentices make to our society.
That is why I am pleased to host a reception to celebrate women in STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths) and encourage more girls to look at apprenticeships in this area. Liberal Democrats in government have helped create over a million and a half new apprenticeships across the country.
It is important that we work together to secure their future and Britain’s long term success: building a stronger economy and fairer society for this generation and the next.
