NEW Apprenticeship Grant for Employers of 16 and 17 year olds

A new grant for employers has been announced to make it easier for employers to take on young Apprentices. Over the next 10 weeks the National Apprenticeship Service will provide up to 5,000 Apprenticeship Grants for employers* of 16 and 17 year olds.

The grant of £2,500 is to enable employers to offer 5,000 new Apprenticeship places and take on an unemployed 16 or 17 year old Apprentice immediately. The £2,500 grant is in addition to the costs of training which are already met by the National Apprenticeship Service.
