This month CILIP Pathways celebrated a significant milestone, the awarding of our 200th apprenticeship for this standard.

From the stories we have gathered so far we are proud to see the evidence of enabling new entrants into the profession, enabling practitioners to demonstrate their experience, be confident in their skills and the move towards creating improved, more inclusive pathways into and through the profession.

This achievement not only highlights the growth and success of the apprenticeship programme, but it is also a milestone, widening the route into the profession. It is wonderful to see the fruits of all the work that the trailblazer group have put into to developing the standard facilitating the development and maintenance of professional standards that meet the current and future needs of employers.

Our gratitude goes to all those that have supported apprentices through their journey and who have contributed to this success.

Since the advent of the first award in April 2021, stories from some of our candidates and their employers have appeared in Information Professional. You can read specific stories here:
