The Be Inspired Business Awards, the BIBAs, winners toured the Academy for Skills and Knowledge run by BAE Systems at Samlesbury to see how the company trains hundreds of apprentices and provides lifelong learning to its 10,000-strong workforce.

It was part of the BIBAs Academy, a package of masterclass lectures, visits to leading firms and networking sessions which is open to the winners of the awards.

BAE Systems’ Academy for Skills and Knowledge principal Nigel Davies said: “At BAE Systems we are committed to ensuring our people have the skills we need for the future of our business, and supporting others to do the same.

I was delighted to welcome the winners of the BIBAs to come and learn about how we deliver training to our people every day of the week, and hopefully they will have picked up something which can support the growth of their businesses.”

The 2018 awards opened for applications this month.
