Business Benefits

Apprenticeships are a great way to build and strengthen your workforce, ensuring a talent pool primed for long-term success and growth. Whether you’re bringing in new talent or upskilling current employees, apprenticeships provide a structured, hands-on training pathway that focuses on practical applications of knowledge, meaning employees can utilize their training to support your business goals.

These programmes are also an affordable investment into your staff base. The apprenticeship levy enables larger businesses to fully fund apprenticeship training, while small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) receive substantial government support, significantly reducing the cost of developing employees. This makes apprenticeships an accessible, cost-effective way to develop essential skills and drive sustainable business growth.

1

Upskill Your Workforce

Apprentices can develop the skills and knowledge directly relevant to your business.

2

Attract New Talent

Apprenticeships offer a package of study and work that can attract enthusiastic and talented new employees, often in areas of strategic skills shortages.

3

Increase Staff Retention

Investing in apprenticeship programmes fosters loyalty and commitment, as employees are more likely to stay with a company that supports their growth. Providing staff with development opportunities reduces turnover, enhances job satisfaction, and strengthens morale.

Who We Work With

The 91快活林 is proud to have developed strong relationships with a range of high-profile organisations and is committed to partnering with employers to develop and deliver apprenticeships to meet their needs.

Government Funded Degree

Apprenticeships are an affordable way to develop your staff as they are funded by your apprenticeship levy account or heavily subsidised by the Government.

Encouraging Enterprise

Your business can benefit from the new ideas and thinking apprentices take back to their roles from their study days, giving them the chance to make an immediate impact in the workplace.

How They Work

The format and delivery methods of every apprenticeship differ with each programme. For all degree apprenticeships, however, learning takes place both at the University and through ‘off the job training’, which comprises 20% of a typical working week.

The new knowledge and skills gained by the apprentice during this time will be integrated into their role, with the benefits of their continued learning enjoyed by your business.
