Apprenticeships

About our apprenticeships

With total of 2.4 million workers recently classed by their employers as not being fully proficient in their current job, the government has committed to three million apprenticeship starts by summer 2020. If you’ve identified skills gaps in your managers or HR professionals, we can help you to upskill them using the funding available through the new Apprenticeship Levy.
