Apprenticeships are widely considered as a measure of a nation, or economy’s intermediate skill level. However, the UK has severely lagged in this department and it has constantly been subject to government intervention via reforms and remains a topic of discussion, despite the wave of optimism. Even more so, the modern broadcasting industry has changed significantly since its inception in the early 20th century and has seen constant amendments to its organisational structure, which owes to its origin in the Reithan developed concept of ’public service broadcasting’. Unfortunately, the broadcasting industry has not been subject to direct apprenticeship schemes for a considerable period. This study will review how the changes in organisational structure has influenced the delivery of training in vocational education. The main purpose of this study is to establish whether structural changes have had an effect on apprenticeships in the television and film industry.
