Employ an Apprentice

We are the largest provider of apprenticeships across Devon and Cornwall. We have delivered almost 20,000 apprenticeships in the last 10 years and have over 60 different apprenticeships offered across a variety of sector areas.

The benefits of hiring an apprentice include the ability to convert fresh ideas into new opportunities as well as:

High levels of dedication; with your apprentice choosing to learn and advance their own, and your business’s, development
The potential to lower staff turnover and reduce the cost of recruitment; apprentices are seen as a great return on investment with higher levels of loyalty
Wider talent pool; recognising talent early and allowing you first pick of the best new talent
Additional £1,000 incentive for hiring a new apprentice aged between 16-18

*Subject to eligibility

We can help save you time and money by covering:

Recruitment and selection; including vacancy advertisement
Funding or grant opportunities; ensuring you maximise your budget and cover the costs of hiring your apprentice
Mentoring; supporting your apprentice every step of the way throughout both college and work life
