Progress Report Number 7: Apprentice Classes at Government Training Centres
Abstract
PLANS TO SET UP CLASSES in Government Training Centres to provide first‐year apprentice training were officially made public on 11th April, four weeks after the Financial Times and the Daily Mail had unofficially announced them in their own columns. But though the announcement was preceded by a period of delay and uncertainty, when the plans were made known they were unassailably sound and contained none of the woolly features that had marred the Cardiff scheme for a civic apprentice training centre — the only comparable proposal in the country to date. When Cardiff made public its own plan in late 1958, criticism showered in from many quarters and it is impressive to note that the present scheme to use government training centres for training apprentices has, with meticulous exactness, met all the serious criticisms levelled at the Cardiff proposal.
