Working With Us

We believe apprenticeships are a partnership. From identifying skills gaps to matching your employees to the right apprenticeship, we're here to ease any administrative burdens and help you reap the rewards of upskilling your people.

Helping your apprenticeships succeed

Where most apprenticeship schemes fail is through the day-to-day management. From making sure apprentices are feeling supported, to recording off-the-job training and monitoring training plans, the administrative burden can be heavy. This is why billions of pounds’ worth of unspent levy is returned to the government each year.

With the right provider, it doesn’t have to be this way. From identifying skills gaps, supporting you with funding paperwork, to managing apprentice applications, let us use our expertise to ease your administrative burden. As your apprenticeship provider, we’re here for you every step of the way.

Employer & apprentice commitment

A key contributor to the success of apprentices is the support of the employer. This means allowing apprentices to complete/attend/participate in six hours per week of off-the-job training during working hours, and provide the opportunity and resources to gain the knowledge, skills and behaviours needed to achieve the apprenticeship.

Apprentices will spend most of their working hours in their productive job role and some of this time must be about consolidating the new knowledge, skills and behaviours gained from off-the-job activities, so that they are fully occupationally competent at the end of the programme.

Apprenticeships to suit your business

Whether you want to send one employee on a single apprenticeship, or you need a closed cohort for your employees, we will work with you to design a solution. We work with organisations of all sizes, across all sectors to ensure that the knowledge, skills and behaviours of the apprenticeship standard can be delivered to help individuals and their teams to make an impact that matters.

Addressing skills gaps

Apprenticeships make the biggest impact when the learning addresses specific skills gaps that your organisation faces.

The first step of our journey together is identifying the skills gaps that exists within your teams, and seeing if our apprenticeships can enable you to fill those gaps.

  • What are the strategic objectives of the business?
  • What skills are lacking within your teams, or organisation right now?
  • What skills does your organisation need to succeed in the future?
  • Do you have the right people, teams, organisation structure to house these future skills needs?

You may have already identified the skills gaps in your business, but this is something our apprenticeship experts can help with.

Skills scan for line managers and apprentices
