The Institute of Packaging Professionals UK (IoPP) has launched an apprenticeship scheme in partnership with City of Bristol College.
 
Kevin Vyse, IoPP director, comments: “The IoPP sponsored work-based programme is designed around the needs of the employer. In return the employer will get a pre-screening of the students, a mentoring service for the students and a specific packaging training module to help them gain a recognised qualification in this vital business arena.”Alison Rugg, head of the faculty of business, creativity and computing at City of Bristol College, adds: “The need for the industry to be involved in the educational process has never been more important, but to add the additional mentoring and packaging focus to this scenario, is a fantastic way to ensure both sides of the process benefit.”
