Apprenticeship Wages
As an employer, it’s your responsibility to pay apprenticeship wages. The current minimum wage rate for apprentices is £4.81 in the first year, which must rise in line with the national minimum wage after this period. We highly recommend paying a more attractive rate than the apprentice minimum wage however, in order to attract the best talent.

Use Apprenticeships To Train Your Current Staff
It’s amazing how many employers are missing out on the incredible funding opportunities for training that apprenticeships offer.
Apprenticeships are not just for new starters. If you’re thinking of training your team in new skills, or increasing their efficiency and productivity with an expert qualification, an apprenticeship is the best way to get £1000s of training for free.
The small contribution you make as an employer will very quickly be recouped as your apprentices increase your company output, reduce mistakes, reduce wastage and delight your customers, leading to one of the most under-rated forms of business growth and ROI.
Did you know? Apprenticeship programmes can be studied up to a degree level, so they’re ideal for any level of employee, from new starters right up to senior managers.
