Apprenticeships Week: 1-5 February 2010

Research shows there are strong business benefits for organisations who offer Apprenticeships but we also know it makes a huge difference to the young people who participate in the scheme. There is also evidence from British Chamber of Commerce research that those who employ apprentices have benefited their bottom line and feel that they are coming out of the recession stronger.

To help unemployed 16 and 17 year olds the National Apprenticeship Service is launching the Apprenticeship Grant for Employers (AGE) to give businesses some support with wage costs, as well as paying all of their training costs.

Some of the very strongest companies in England, both big and small, public and private, employ apprentices and other firms should follow their lead.
