Nomination & Registration Process

1. Employers and training providers should submit registrations, although apprentices can self register.

2. Apprentices that achieved their apprenticeship between 1st August 2022 & 31st July 2023 can participate in this graduation ceremony (This can include up to 31st August ESFA official confirmation of achievement).

3. This may include those that were not able to complete in 2021/22, for example due to Covid-19 disruption, but in fact achieved in the 2021/22 or 2022/23 academic year.

4. Achievement is defined as full completion of the training programme plus End-Point Assessment and the confirmed achievement of the apprenticeship by the ESFA.

5. Please register apprentices using the registration portal below. We will not complete registrations on behalf of apprentices or organisations.

6. Complete all required details fully and accurately (especially emails) to ensure success.

7. Provision of a valid email for the apprentice(s) is essential as this will ensure event notifications and information updates are sent to them.

8. On completion of the registration form the apprentice will receive a pre-validation confirmation email provided their correct email is supplied.

9. Successful submission of the registration form will trigger a validation process through which the event organisers will make contact with the provider and/or employer to finalise the registration.

10. Validated registered apprentices will be invited to attend the formal ceremony at Rochester Cathedral. This is subject to capacity and validated apprentices will be given the option to attend the ceremony after registration closes. Those that confirm attendance first will be given priority for available places and up to two guest places.

​

​
