Benefits of hiring an apprentice

Apprenticeships are an exciting option for both apprentice and employer.

You can employ apprentices at different levels, from school and college leavers as well as university graduates to people who want to further their careers or change career direction completely.
You can hire someone new or upskill an existing employee.

As an employer, you can get funding from the government to help pay for apprenticeship training.
