You don’t have to buy a new car to drive faster in the business lane. Just soup up the engine you already have by upskilling your current employees. Upskill. It’s an ugly word for a brilliant way to meet your business development objectives. Collins Dictionary defines the word as: to improve the aptitude for work of a person by additional training. So in a nutshell: training. One creative way to invest in your workforce is through Modern Apprenticeships and Graduate Level Apprenticeships.
Employees are offered a structured, focused route to new skills through MA frameworks, which have been designed for specific industries.
The training is packed with relevant, useful skills, and at the end of it all, there’s an industry-recognised qualification.
Your employees earn while they learn and move to the next level. You get real results.
Modern Apprenticeships will give them the confidence they need to realise their full potential. It’s also a great way of motivating your team.
Head to apprenticeship.scot to find out more.
Here's our handy guide to Modern Apprenticeships. You can also get in touch if your question isn't answered below.
Decide on what the role will involve, how much you’ll pay and what qualifications you’re looking for. We'll help you find a training provider for your MA and our employer engagement advisers are here to assist with any questions.
It’s easy to find an apprenticeship framework to suit your business. Just head to apprenticeship.scot and search by job title – there are 80 frameworks, covering hundreds of jobs. Or look for a training provider – they can help with recruitment, admin, training and assessment.
Just like any other employee, you pay your MA’s wages. We’ll then pay towards the cost of training; your business pays the balance.
A local training provider manages and delivers the training to your Modern Apprentices – all the way to qualification.
Many training providers will give you support and advice along the way.
