The study visit to London aims at knowledge transfer of key staff from partner organisations through exposing them to:

• the workings of exemplar Apprenticeship Partnership structures linking together businesses and their employees with schools and colleges,
• modern techniques and approaches on lobbying, advocacy, partnership organisation and coordination, as well as communication with a diverse range of actors in the field of apprenticeships, with particular focus on how to effectively reach out to SMEs with no or some prior experience in offering work-based learning and
• successful cases of apprenticeship programmes steered by Apprenticeship Partnership organisations such as the Education Business Partnerships (site-visits at selected SMEs)
