Apprenticeships can add significant value to a business. They play an important role in defining the future success of firms and professions as a whole. Apprenticeships have changed over the years. An employer now has more flexibility to make sure that apprenticeships are not only relevant to business needs but expands the way new talent is recruited and nurtured. Whether you have not employed an apprentice before or count yourself as an apprenticeship veteran, Daniel Barnett offers guidance to how to create and benefit from successful apprenticeships time and time again.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• common law apprenticeships, which is the traditional apprenticeship model
• statutory apprenticeship, the type more commonly entered into today
• can you get government funding to cover some of the cost of training?
• what are the practical implications of employing apprentices?
