Apprenticeships
Apprenticeships provide an excellent opportunity to learn as you earn. They are a great step into the workplace for young adults, but also an excellent way to develop your career within a business. An apprenticeship can be undertaken alongside your existing role and employers’ benefit by utilising their apprenticeship levy (if they have a payroll of over £3m), making it a very viable method of training and development. Recognised as the leading standard for work-based training, there are many benefits for doing an apprenticeship or employing one.
