Apprenticeship Incentive Bonus

The government have recently announced a new incentive bonus of up to £2,000 per apprenticeship taken on by employers, this forms part of a total package of £1.6 billion announced by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Rishi Sunak.

The support available includes:

• £2,000 for each new apprentice hired by employers under the age of 25. This is in addition to the existing £1,000 payment already provided for new 16-18-year-old apprentices and those aged under 25 with an Education, Health and Care Plan.
• £1,500 for each new apprentice hired by employers over the age of 25.

We are extremely excited that apprenticeships are being moved to the forefront of the government’s plans and we would like to offer our support to your company in finding the right apprentice for your business. Please see our current apprenticeship offering list, each apprenticeship is linked directly to the full apprenticeship standard.
