An apprenticeship combines learning at a college/training provider with on-site experience to give apprentices the right mix of technical and practical skills.
Finding and recruiting an apprentice can be simple, but if you need support our New Entrant Support Team (NEST) are on hand to help you every step of the way.
New Entrant Support Team (NEST) Created to support employers across the UK, this hands-on free support can cover recruitment, paperwork, accessing grants & funding, and ongoing mentoring throughout the apprenticeship.

Apprenticeships are the bedrock of the construction industry. They are preparing the next generation of construction workers and represent an exciting option for both apprentice and employer.
You can employ apprentices at different levels, from school leavers and university graduates, to people who want to further their careers or change career direction completely.
Not only will your apprentice be gaining from the experience, as an employer you will too. It’s a mutually beneficial relationship which helps the apprentice learn and develop new skills that directly improve your business, helping both to grow
In England, Scotland and Wales grants & funding are available to support you and your apprentice.
You could be eligible for grants that cover attendance, achievement, travel, accommodation and more.
See Apprenticeship Grants or speak to your NEST adviser, or Apprentice Development Officer if you’re in Scotland, to find out what support is available.
