P1000151The benefits of taking on an apprentice

There has never been a better time to offer apprenticeships, with one in five employers hiring more apprentices to help them through the current economic climate.

You will be getting a keen, motivated member of staff that wants to learn and help your business to grow. In fact, 80% of employers say apprentices have made their workplace more productive.

Apprenticeship training is developed in consultation with the industry, meaning an apprentice will learn the right skills for the job.
