If you are an employer looking for support with hiring apprentices or an apprentice in need of a job, it can be difficult to find the right resources. With Employing an Apprentice, there is no shortage of opportunities! Our comprehensive information hub has hundreds of specialist resources tailored for both employers and apprentices, and is focused on connecting young people and adults, who may have fallen through the cracks of the economy, with UK businesses looking to tap into future potential.

Employing an Apprentice has everything from information on schemes like the Apprenticeship Levy to guides for finding a training provider or local assistance. With new government schemes and funding around technical education being announced every day, keep up to date on our website and make sure you never miss out on an opportunity again.

For young people, the variety of careers options available to them can be daunting. With traineeships, t-levels and a sometimes overwhelming number of different types of apprenticeships, making the right choice can be difficult. Thankfully, Employing an Apprentice has all the information there is in one place. So whether you just want to know what an apprenticeship is, or want to find support in your local area, the guide or resource is on the site.

There are many new government programmes and funding opportunities for young people and adults seeking apprenticeships or jobs. With so much going on, many businesses and apprentices are unsure of the options available to them. Apprentices can be an excellent investment for your business, but many employers are put off hiring apprentices because of a lack of knowledge. That's why it is crucial to have all the information needed to provide apprenticeship training, and Employing an Apprentice has this in abundance, from step-by-step guides for complex schemes such as the Apprenticeship Levy to showing you the benefits hiring an apprentice can bring.

Unlike other training methods, apprenticeships ensure work continues alongside training. An apprentice is trained to suit the needs of your business. You can tailor and adapt what your apprentice learns so it's as relevant to their role as possible. Did you know that 91% of apprentices stay on in the job role upon completing their apprenticeship, and workers completing a higher level apprenticeship in the UK could see an increase in earnings of over £150,000 during their lifetime? Apprenticeships have changed a lot over recent years, such that they are no longer just a pathway for lower-qualified training. This means there are not only benefits in apprenticeships for 16-year-olds but for adult apprenticeships in the workplace too.

If you're an employer considering hiring an apprentice, it makes sense that your first port of call should be looking at on a specialist careers platform like this one. To help you find the perfect candidate, Employing an Apprentice has a dedicated apprenticeship jobs board on our website where employers can advertise their vacancies and job seekers can apply for them. It's quick and simple to upload job advertisements, and each listing can be linked to the relevant apprenticeship standard and a bespoke company profile, allowing for candidates to make a more well-informed choice about their future.

In addition to this, if you are a business that is eligible for the Apprenticeship Levy, we also offer help and advice on how to make use of your excess funds. Many companies don't know what to do with their levy once they've paid it; we can show you how to make the most of your excess funds to help provide new apprenticeship training opportunities to other employers in the UK and find suitable employers based on your own criteria, using our Apprenticeship Levy Transfer Service.
