Herefordshire Apprenticeship Awards 2027

The Herefordshire Apprenticeship Awards celebrate the apprentices, employers and mentors driving apprenticeship success across the county. Hosted by Herefordshire Growth Hub in partnership with Herefordshire Council and local training organisations, the awards shine a spotlight on those helping to build a skilled, ambitious and future-ready workforce in Herefordshire.

The three main categories are Apprentice of the Year, Apprentice Employer of the Year and Mentor of the Year. New for 2027 are New Apprenticeship Employer of the Year, the Future Skills Apprenticeship Award and Employer Mentor of the Year. Up to three finalists will be shortlisted in each category.

Winners will be announced at the awards ceremony on Tuesday 9 February 2027, during National Apprenticeship Week. The venue will be revealed soon.
