That the Parliament commends the achievements of the young people who joined the Modern Apprenticeship Programme, and their success in securing full-time posts with NHS Lanarkshire; believes that the programme is a great opportunity for 16- to 24-year olds to gain skills, knowledge and experience directly in the workplace while studying towards a college level qualification; considers that, with rigorous training, practical work, studying and support, the programme can open a lot of doors for young people, and believes that, with the challenges and trials that the healthcare system continues to face, these apprentices have shown adaptability, resilience and a passion for learning.
