[cma-l] BBC to offer Salford apprenticeships

[CMA-L]

BBC North is launching an apprenticeship scheme at its new MediaCity
headquarters in Salford. It is hoping to recruit 100 young people to
take up opportunities to train in various aspects of broadcasting.

The first apprentices are expected to join in September. The BBC said
many of the apprenticeships will have a digital media or technology
focus, reflecting the move to multi-platform broadcasting.

Richard Deverell, chief operating officer, for BBC North, says: "This
new apprenticeship scheme is a unique and long-term initiative that
will offer a real training opportunity in the Greater Manchester area,
bringing new people into the BBC as well as strengthening and
enriching the creative industries across the region."
