These ‘green’ apprenticeships have great sustainability credentials
Six ‘green’ apprenticeships that will receive the Coronation emblem in recognition of their sustainability credentials could be of interest to anyone with a keen interest in the climate and environment.
They will be marked with the emblem, released to coincide with the coronation of King Charles III and in recognition of his love of the natural world, after being selected from a shortlist of 200 apprenticeships.
The apprenticeships dubbed ‘green’ have been shown to be vital organisational roles that would help to boost the green industry and support economic growth.

Beatriz Ramos Albert (pictured), who is 32 years old and a former lawyer from Valencia, Spain, as well as an award-winning apprentice, said of the ‘green’ apprenticeship: “I am passionate about people and driving change which enhances the lives of individuals and communities, so this was the perfect role for me.
“I’m almost two years into my apprenticeship, and I’m delighted that this role has received this accolade.”
