The Disconnect Report - What is it?

Most early careers development programmes are well-designed. Well-intentioned. And quietly underperforming.

Not because the content is wrong, but because the pieces aren't connected. Managers don't know what their graduates and apprentices are learning, learning doesn't stick once people are back at their desks and proving the ROI to senior stakeholders feels like an uphill battle.

This report surfaces the patterns showing up across organisations of every size in 2026 based on 20+ research interviews with early careers leads across the UK and a survey of graduates and apprentices currently on programme.

With September around the corner there's no better time to get clear on what needs to change and how.
