Apprenticeships to Diversify Staff Skills
The pandemic has taught us that we need to be able to rely on, and operate with, a core number of staff. If your staff have a wider range of skills, they’re able to fill in and take charge should anyone ever be absent or leave the company.
Diversifying you staff’s skills will also enable them to cover functions within the business that may not fully require a dedicated role.
For example, it’s a great idea to give your receptionist or office manager a digital marketing qualification.
An assistant may also benefit from a business administration qualification.
An apprenticeship doesn’t take much time out of a worker’s current schedule, and level 2 or 3 qualifications can be completed in just a year.
Not only that, NTG’s flexible training solutions mean we can combine site visits and online classrooms to deliver apprenticeships in a way that impacts your schedule minimally.
Why Choose an Apprenticeship for Staff Training?
Apprenticeships are recognised qualifications; they’re extremely thorough and must be approved by a relevant body to ensure they give learners a comprehensive knowledge of their chosen subject.
Apprenticeships offer a much more extensive form of training than courses offered by training companies. They are regulated, held to extremely high standards, and nationally recognised.
Apprenticeships are available from GCSE level to Masters, so they’re an excellent way to encourage continuous professional development and a culture of learning within your team.
Not only that, but apprenticeships are highly cost effective. Employers can contribute as little as £150-£200 in some cases for a year-long programme but may also qualify for 100% funding making the training completely free.
