The BAME Apprenticeship Awards aims to showcase the range of talent and hard work within the BAME communities which will be made possible with the contribution of employers and learning providers who share these beliefs.
The Asian Apprenticeship Awards took place on the 10th November 2016 at the Holiday Inn Birmingham City Centre. The aim of the awards was to celebrate and showcase the best of British Asian Apprentices and the people that employ and train them. In doing this, we hope that we will encourage more young British Asians to consider apprenticeships and more employers to provide opportunities to benefit from the skills that apprentices bring. Apprenticeships provide value for individuals, businesses and the economy. There is a universal commitment in the UK of being able to extend opportunities for everyone regardless of their race, gender or religion. In this respect, a number of government targets have been placed to improve the labour market chances for all. These include increasing the quantity of apprenticeships taken on by young people deriving from BME backgrounds by 20% and also increasing BME employment by another 20%, by the year 2020. The Asian Apprenticeship Awards are all about doing something practical to make a positive difference. We believe at least in a small way that we have made a difference and will continue to do so by highlighting, recognising and celebrating apprenticeship success both with individuals, employers and learning providers that support them. We all recognise that for the success of businesses and therefore the economy and the country as a whole, we have to be able to draw upon a skilled and motivated workforce. It is also clear that our apprentices are vital to providing these skills. However, there are not enough of them and especially not enough from the British Asian communities. So the challenge for us is how to address this issue. Our aspiration is that the Asian Apprenticeship Awards will make an important contribution by raising awareness, celebrating success and inspiring others.

The first Asian Apprenticeship Awards, took place on November 10th, 2016, in Birmingham city centre.
The event celebrated young Asian apprentices as well the professionals who have trained and employed them.
This report (written by our Project Director, Isa Mutlib) provides an overview of the context and background of the event, the businesses that were in attendance, our trusted judges, and our ambassadors.
We have also included details about our sponsors, companies involved within the event, our survey responses and our social media statistics.
The event was a great success last year, and will be taking place again in 2017.
The Asian Apprenticeship Awards has completed its third year in operation since being founded in 2016, and our aim hasn’t changed: to celebrate the talent and diversity of British Asian Apprentices, their Employers and Training Providers.Since inception, we have noticed a significant transition among those within the skills sector about some of the stigmas behind apprenticeships within British Asian and BAME communities generally. Through the support of the Government and key partner organisations, we have been able to use this platform to propel our message into new communities across the country to encourage more people from British Asian communities to consider an apprenticeship route.2018 also saw a sectoral shift response with a 25% increase in involvement from employers compared with training providers and FE colleges which saw a decrease. The male and female split among finalists was quite interesting. Generally, females outweighed males in many of the sectors. However, the gender balance overall was affected by the male dominated sectors of Construction and Engineering & Manufacturing. When speaking with sector leaders, this was no surprise.“It is really disappointing to see the proportion of finalist as 100% male in Construction as well as Engineering and Manufacturing. Whilst recognising that a large proportion of the workforce in these two sectors are male there are still a significant number of females employed and many of these are excellent and well deserving of a place in the finals. We need to encourage them to come forward as entrants and show the skills and talent them possess”- Graham Hasting-EvansPresident of the British Association of Construction HeadsGroup Managing Director NOCNLastly, we saw from our data a significant increase in organisations supporting initiatives locally and nationally to raise the profile of apprenticeships within diverse communities. More people were using the platform of the Asian Apprenticeship Awards to not only encourage more people to enter and celebrate their successes but as a tool to raise awareness of diversity internally.

The issues we have been speaking about since 2016 through our platform are still relevant issues and, in many cases, we need to do much more and more importantly for us we believe on a practical level
Any commercial entity realises for them to make the biggest impact there needs to be “eco-system” of products and services; a single product/service is great but to give real value there needs to other elements of wrap around. The same way, a training company will not be able its full potential with one offer -e.g., if there are doing traineeships ideally, they should have apprenticeships and even different levels so they can service their customers better – both employers and the learner.
We have a great core product which we are known for, and we are privileged to hold this space with the Awards ceremony, and we are proud off

About BAME Apprenticeship Awards
Previously the Asian Apprenticeship Awards, the BAME Apprenticeship Awards aims to showcase talent and diversity within BAME communities through the celebration of those working hard to overcome adversity to achieve their goals through apprenticeships. The awards highlight the achievements of apprentices and the contribution of employers and learning providers who have assisted them along their journey.
Our findings were that several factors contributed to this, some which focussed on apprenticeships themselves and others around diversity. From our research we found that:
Apprenticeships were seen negatively
There was a lack of understanding of apprenticeships
More focus and pressure was being put on going to university
No positive apprentice role models
We used this as the basis for us to set up the Awards because we felt that an Awards would be the most effective means of inspiring excellence and sharing best practice as well as creating more opportunities for those involved.
“I’m delighted to be leading on this event for such a worthwhile cause and for you supporting us in raising awareness and celebrating the achievements of BAME Apprentices.
Safaraz Ali
Founder of BAME Apprenticeship Awards
The BAME Apprenticeship Awards aims to showcase the range of talent and hard work within the BAME communities which will be made possible with the contribution of employers and learning providers who share these beliefs.
Apprenticeships deliver not only for individuals and businesses, they’re also essential to the economy. It’s our belief that young people in apprenticeships and the employers who provide them with opportunities should be both recognised and celebrated.

Safaraz Ali, Founder/CEO, BAME Apprenticeship Awards / BAME
Apprentice Network & Pathway Group
This session will discuss closing the diversity gap in apprenticeships;
what’s working well and what we can do to champion further change
within the sector. We need change, we all say it but how is the move from intention to execution working, what are the missing links and how celebrating difference matters and how do we champion a culture
of authenticity?
The Asian Apprenticeship Awards was launched in March 2016 to celebrate the talent and diversity of under-represented British Asian Apprentices, their Employers and Training Providers. Apprenticeships have been seen as a secondary route for British Asians with the perception that University is the primary way for leading a successful career. This correlates with the current representation of British Asian apprentices with the starts of 2016/2017 - that being 4.1%. The 2017 awards brought together cross industry and sector leaders from across the country supporting not just the event, but the cause behind it. With over 60% of our audience at C-level or Managerial level, there was a high level of influence in the room - a significant increase from 2016.Our awards fits into a larger discussion around Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) representation within the labour market. There has been a demand for diverse workforces, not just for the local and national demographic representation, but for the economic benefits. For the economy to thrive, diversity is key. Full representation of BAME individuals within workforces across the UK would be worth £24bn per year to the economy.Employers and Training Providers are recognising this and are bringing out initiatives to boost diverse representation.

the original content of the 1973 TPS manual1 was written by
the staff2 of Toyota Motor Corp. (OMCD - Operations Management Consulting Division.
By 1970, Toyota had a fairly stable production system internally and they made a decision to
assist suppliers by sharing their knowledge and skills. To do this, Toyota created a special
internal improvement group called Production Research Division (later renamed Operations
Management Consulting Division – OMCD)
his 1973 manual was also used as course materials by Ohno and his team – the Japanese
Management Association compiled their workshop materials and released it as a book in the
1978. Productivity Press translated it and released it as Kanban: Just-in-time at Toyota in
1986. While much of the Productivity Press book consists of the same materials as the 1973
TPS Manual, it is not presented in the same order.

2. We all recognise that for the success of businesses and therefore the economy and the country as a whole,
we have to be able to draw upon a skilled and motivated workforce. It is also clear that our apprentices are
vital to providing these skills. However, there are not enough of them and especially not enough from the
British Asian communities. Therefore, the challenge for us is how to address this issue. Our aspiration is
that the Asian Apprenticeship Awards will make an important contribution by raising awareness, celebrating
success and inspiring others.
The Awards would not be possible without the vision and support of many people. This includes the core
team, judges and ambassadors who have given their time and effort for the cause, as well our sponsors and
partners who have backed us with this initiative. Most of all we need to thank the excellent apprentices that
have taken part and the businesses and organisations that employ and support them.
Sincere and hearty congratulations to all the finalists and winners tonight, enjoy

WELCOME
A WORD FROM THE FOUNDER & CHAIR
Welcome and thank you for your participation and contribution to the
2nd Annual Asian Apprenticeship Awards.
The aim of the awards is to celebrate and showcase the best of
British Asian Apprentices and the people that employ and train them.
In doing this, we hope that we will encourage more young British
Asians to consider apprenticeships and more employers to provide
opportunities to benefit from the skills that apprentices bring.
Apprenticeships provide value for individuals, businesses and the
economy.
There is a universal commitment in the UK of being able to extend
opportunities for everyone regardless of their race, gender or
religion. In this respect, a number of government targets have been
placed to improve the labour market chances for all. These include
increasing the quantity of apprenticeships taken on by young people
deriving from BAME backgrounds by 20% and increasing BAME
employment by another 20%, by the year 2020.
The Asian Apprenticeship Awards are all about doing something
practical to make a positive difference. We believe at least in a small
way that we have made a difference and will continue to do so by
highlighting, recognising and celebrating apprenticeship success
with both individuals, employers and learning providers that support
them.

FOREWORD
SUPPORT FROM THE NATIONAL APPRENTICESHIP SERVICE
Sue Husband
Director of
National Apprenticeship Service
I am so pleased that the National Apprenticeship Service is
supporting the Asian Apprenticeship Awards, recognising and
celebrating the talent and diversity among apprentices within the
BAME community and the great work of enlightened employers and
learning providers.
Over time we see employers thinking differently about the make-up
of their workforces and this is work that needs to continue. And we
know the way young people are thinking about apprenticeships is
changing. The excitement of gaining transferable skills – and crucial
industry knowledge and experience - is positively impacting the lives
of so many people.
No matter who you are, or where you are from, or what career you
want to undertake, an apprenticeship could help you achieve what
you want – in your career and in your life. Apprenticeships are for
everyone.
To those employers at the Asian Apprenticeship Awards who don’t
currently have an apprentice, I would encourage you to join the
thousands of employers utilising the skills of apprentices - in a broad
range of sectors from nuclear to fashion, law, banking and defence –
and to consider recruiting an apprentice today.
And if you are considering what to do next in your career, an
apprenticeship could be for you. Applying is easy.
Visit GOV.UK and search ‘Find an apprenticeship’ – where you will find apprenticeship opportunities all the
way through to degree level.
It is crucial that we continue to widen participation in apprenticeships from across this diverse community.
By unleashing the potential, vibrancy and talent of all, we can make sure that our workforce reflects the
customers we serve and the communities we operate in.
Enjoy these awards and celebrate the success, drive and determination of apprentices, employers and
training providers as they are recognised for being the best in their category.
I personally congratulate each and every one of them for their brilliant
achievements!
Thank you
Sue Husband

Dr Rami Ranger is a well-known and highly successful entrepreneur
in the UK. He started his business life with £2 and an old type writer
in a shed back in 1987 and felt very humbled and privileged to be
heading a business with an annual turnover of in excess of £200
million and operating in 130 countries.
He came to the UK in 1971 to study law expecting the ‘streets to be
paved with gold’ but when found that he could not take forward his
ambition and took the only job available, which was cleaning cars.
His philosophy with that job like, everything else he has done, was to
make sure he did it well in order to ‘stand out from the rest.’ His view
is if you cannot do a small job well then how can you be trusted with
a big one?
Other jobs followed including working for Kentucky Fried Chicken, the
electrical retailer Dixons and running a family convenience store, off
licence and Post Office. But the big change for him came in 1987 He
started his business which has since gone from strength to strength
and now has been awarded five consecutive Queen’s Awards for
Dame Asha Khemka DBE

value of apprentices.

LORD DIGBY JONES - INTERNATIONAL BUSINESSMAN AND
CROSS BENCH PEER AT THE HOUSE OF LORDS
I was delighted to learn about the awards – it is great that you are bringing
together BME Asian apprentices, businesses and providers to celebrate their
successes.
I strongly believe that more needs to be done to showcase the fantastic
opportunities that an apprenticeship can offer all young people and that is why I
am excited to be working with the Asian Apprenticeship Awards. I hope that by
showcasing the Apprentice of the Year at The Skills Show we can unravel some
of the myths that exist and inspire more young people, from all backgrounds, to
consider an apprenticeship as a route to a successful and rewarding career.
These Awards are excellent! Young people with self-esteem, self respect and a
ticket they know will set them on a path of realisation of aspiration, will be the
immediate beneficiaries of the aura and esteem these Awards give the Asian
Community, but our Country and our City will be the long-term beneficiary and
that is a wonderful thing.
Apprenticeships have become more and more important to our economy. The
need to rapidly up-skill the next generation of industry leaders has proven to
be a success delivering not only for the apprentices but for businesses and
the economy. In the Asian Community sadly, there is a stigma attached to
apprenticeships and it is seen as something lesser than a degree or getting into
employment straight away.
The Asian Apprenticeship Awards are about giving recognition to top employers,
and shining a light on those who are delivering exceptional programmes. The
Apprenticeship Diversity Champions Network, launched earlier this year, is also
about doing just that. The ADCN is a Network of employers who are going above
and beyond to make positive changes for apprenticeship diversity.

A FEW WORDS ABOUT OUR GUEST SPEAKER
Charlie, who left school at 15 to do a plumbing apprenticeship, is the
Managing Director of Pimlico Plumbers with a business employing more
than 300 people and became Britain’s first millionaire plumber.
He is a great example of an apprentice to became an executive.
He started his journey when he left school at 15 to take up an
apprenticeship in plumbing which years later led to him setting up his
own company.
Apprentice training is part of raising the status and standing of
plumbers. He is unhappy that anyone can call themselves a plumber
and would also like greater regulation of plumbing including licensing.
Charlie Mullins, who was brought up on a London council estate, has
come a long way. He has advised Government, including former Prime
Minister David Cameron and Chancellor of the Exchequer George
Osborne.
He is a great believer in young people and a champion of
apprenticeships. Charlie is a Patron of the Prince’s Trust and has come
up with something that he calls ‘The Pimlico Apprenticeship School’ that
he has put to Government and believes this would help to dramatically
cut youth unemployment.
