About Apprenticeships

Have you ever considered hiring an apprentice?

With the new Trailblazer Apprenticeship scheme and the support of Access Financial Services, there has never been a better time to include an apprentice in your team.

Finding, hiring and training a new apprentice is easier than you might think. You can even place existing employees on an apprenticeship, boosting the skills within your workforce without recruiting new staff.

Anyone over the age of 16 is eligible to train under the scheme, making apprenticeships a fantastic way for adults of any age to continue their education while in paid work.

What are the benefits of hiring as apprentice?

Trailblazer apprenticeships are a great way for individuals to continue learning, but there are also fantastic benefits for you and your organisation.

You don’t have to do it on your own. Access Financial Services are here to help you and your apprentice get the most out of the scheme.

The benefits of hiring an apprentice / training existing staff:

• Boost productivity
• Improve employee motivation
• Part of the programme cost is funded by the government
• Government incentives could make hiring an apprentice cost positive
• Coaching and mentoring from Access Financial Services’s expert trainers
• Training is designed to minimise disruption to day-to-day business activity
