Hiring an apprentice with L & E Education
What is an Apprentice?
An apprenticeship is a full time job where learners gain experience and get paid. Apprentices are an employee with a contract of employment and holiday leave. By the end of an apprenticeship, they'll have the right skills and knowledge needed for successful progression within your organisation.
It can take between 1 and 6 years to complete an apprenticeship depending on which one is chosen, what level it is and previous experience. It’s funded from contributions made by the government and employer. There are some additional incentives for employers that may mean it is 100% funded.
