Apprenticeships are a way for businesses to develop both their new and existing staff, using funding the Government has set aside specifically for this purpose. They bring together training providers such as LSBU, employers, professional bodies and apprentices in a formal relationship to meet the needs of the modern economy. Your existing staff can undertake an apprenticeship to gain the skills your company needs. Read more about who can be an apprentice.
