Between now and 31 March 2010, The National Apprenticeship Service will provide a new grant for employers, making it easier for them to take on young apprentices. 

Over the next 10 weeks The National Apprenticeship Service will provide up to 5,000 Apprenticeship Grants for employers.  The grant of £2,500 aims to enable employers to offer new apprenticeships to unemployed 16 or 17 year olds with an immediate start.  The £2,500 grant will be offered in addition to the cost of training (which is already met by the National Apprenticeship Service).

If you require more information about the grant or wish to discuss this initiative further, please contact Gill Burns on 01634 383142

For all media enquiries, please contact Heather Collingwood,
Marketing and Communications Officer on 01634 383037
