  3. ISE Apprenticeships Conference 2026 - Programme

Agenda coming soon

Our theme for the conference is 'Opening doors, building skills, growing the UK economy'.

We'll be exploring topics such as...

  • The landscape of apprentice reforms: challenges and opportunities
  • Delivering an effective apprentice programme: how can employers, training providers and learners best collaborate to deliver the skills the UK needs?
  • The commercial case for hiring apprentices – and the costs (to include consideration of salaries and career pathways post-apprenticeship). Making the case for maximising ROI for apprentice hires
  • Recruitment & assessment for apprentices: alignment with EDI strategy; ensuring authenticity and managing mass applications in an AI world

The Apprenticeships Conference Planning and Review Group are reviewing presentation proposals from our expert members, and the agenda will be released soon.

  • Last year myself and EY colleagues found the conference added a whole tonne of value to our future planning. It wasn’t your typical conference – more of a deep dive into what’s really happening in talent acquisition. Focusing on the topics that matter including AI in recruitment and effective early careers programme management. It you’re serious about staying on top of your game, the ISE conference is the place to be.

  • I always find the ISE Recruitment Conference a great opportunity to connect with peers, hear about innovations and new ideas, and reflect our Early Careers strategy for the year ahead.

  • When I first attended the ISE Conference I learned so much from the people I met and the sessions I attended.  Over 15 years later I keep going back because every year I still learn something new.
