<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Hi There,
<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">My name is Lisa Burton and I work for the BBC Academy. This week we are launching the BBC Production Apprentice Scheme.
</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">In its 5<sup>th</sup> year, this scheme offers an amazing opportunity to work on a range of top BBC programmes from The ONE Show to 1Xtra, Strictly Come Dancing to Star Gazing,
Radio 2 to The Culture Show. The Apprentices will receive gold standard training delivered by the BBC Academy and our partner London college. And they will be the chance to earn while they learn. By the end of the scheme they will have achieved a Level 3
qualification in Creative and Digital Media and a CV full of media experience plus a network of contacts.
</span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">At the BBC we want to encourage people with different life stories and experiences to apply for this amazing opportunity and we wondered if you could help us do that? Through
your organisation and social media networks, could you possibly help us make sure as many people know about the scheme and this fantastic opportunity? </span><u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I have attached a poster and flyer in the following link: <br></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><span style="color:#1f497d"><u></u><u></u></span></span></p>
