An apprenticeship is a great way to fill a job vacancy or upskill existing staff. Apprenticeships are in demand by job seekers and therefore it is a great way of recruiting staff. You may also consider upskilling your existing staff through an apprenticeship.
In this page, we explain how the process works and how we can help you at each step. You can also check out our FAQs page for employers!
An apprenticeship is a genuine job with an accompanying assessment and skills development programme. It is a way for employees to earn a wage whilst they gain valuable skills and knowledge in a specific job role. The apprentice gains this through a mix of learning in the workplace, formal off-the-job training and the opportunity to practise new skills in a real work environment. For employers, hiring an apprentice is an opportunity to recruit motivated employees and teach them the skills that their organisation needs.
