Funding

In April 2017, the government changed the way that Apprenticeships are funded.

Employers that have a wage bill over £3 million annualy are now required to contribute to the Apprenticeship Levy, in addition there have been changes to the funding for Apprenticeship training for all employers. Employers that pay into the Apprenticeship Levy are then able to use this fund to invest into the development of their workforce.
