APPRENTICESHIPS

Apprentices make a contribution to your business from day one.

Apprentices learn while they work, so their knowledge is up-to-date. Because their training is on the job, the practical skills they gain are the ones that are right for your business. Apprenticeships offer your business:

• Training for all your existing staff and new recruits aged 16 and over in a wide range of areas including Retail, Customer Service, Administration, Warehousing and Manufacturing, Construction and Cleaning Services.
• Relevant training designed by business for business

You need to look forward to keep your business ahead of the competition. And that is where Apprenticeships can help. Apprenticeships are established qualifications that you can trust.

Unlike many training courses, Apprenticeships ensure that young people have the practical skills to do the job. Training is on the job, so you can make sure they learn the skills that work best for your business.

Keep your competitive advantage by training your people now and equipping them with the skills you need for the future.

'As an employer and as a parent, I would definitely recommend an Apprenticeship as a good way to get the skills and qualifications to build a successful career.'

Derek Forde, Managing Director, Station Tiles

To showcase the exciting initiatives being developed by employers to get the most out of both their Apprenticeship programme and their apprentices, the LSC launched the Employer Best Practice Guide at the 2006 Awards. The guide features many short listed contenders for this year’s Employer of the Year Awards, including BMW (UK), the Royal Mail and the National Grid.

Your business will benefit from Apprenticeships in the following ways:

• Improved productivity
• Apprenticeships equip people with the skills and knowledge to do the job better. And because they are motivated they work harder and more effectively for your business.
• Motivated people
• Apprentices are motivated people who are keen to learn. By offering Apprenticeships you will find it easier to recruit and retain able young people.
• Relevant training
• Apprenticeships are designed by businesses in your sector to meet the needs of your business. This means the training is always relevant and it is tailored to the needs of your sector by people who genuinely understand what you do.
• Avoid skills shortages
