  • networks and events across English regions
  • published guidance on key topics to share practice and learning, such as the LGA’s guidance on Procuring Apprenticeship Training
  • insight into practice and progress across all councils in England
  • access to the online network Khub with dedicated discussions on the Apprenticeship Levy.
