The National College actively works with employers, many of whom are dedicated to increasing the diversity of their workforce. The National College supports this by encouraging employers to recruit from non-traditional backgrounds as well as supporting learners who may have learning difficulties and other needs through the support of their Industry Practitioners (assessors) and through a dedicated pastoral and welfare lead.

It is a long-term aim of the college to encourage more employers within the industry to create apprenticeships that will lead to permanent employment within their organisations.
