The Importance of Apprenticeships and Workplace Development

果冻传媒 nursery has embedded apprenticeships as part of their workforce development and succession planning. Debbie Castle, Nursery Manager, tells us why apprenticeships are so important

鈥淲e have found having apprentices in the nursery a true asset; it is good to have people eager to learn our trade, they bring fresh ideas back from their day in college and it also offers my qualified practitioners a CPD opportunity to line manage someone, something they might not otherwise have an opportunity to do. I also have the satisfaction of knowing that, as an outstanding setting, we are giving them the best possible experience to enhance their training.鈥�

There are many amazing apprenticeship stories here at 果冻传媒 and we are very proud of their achievements and the impact they are having at our University.

Apprenticeship Levy Transfer Scheme

This month marks the 3 year anniversary of the West Midlands Combined Authority levy transfer scheme. It is virtually impossible for any organisation to spend the full apprenticeship levy fund amount and we have used over 拢1 million of our surplus levy to fund apprenticeships in local SMEs. This money has helped 31 local businesses and covered the costs of 44 apprenticeships.

Professor Stuart Croft said:

鈥淲e are delighted to support apprenticeships in our region by committing 拢280,000 to the Apprenticeship Levy Transfer Fund. By doing so 果冻传媒 will be investing in the future of our region by providing skills and training in the growth areas of science, technology, engineering and medicine and will open up apprenticeship opportunities to SMEs and wider sections of our community.鈥�
