It is National Apprenticeship Week (February 6th-12th), so there’s no better time to dive into the support available to help you benefit from the great things that apprentices can bring to your business.
In its 16th year, the theme for National Apprenticeship Week 2023 is ‘Skills for Life’, reflecting how apprenticeships can help individuals develop the skills and knowledge required for a rewarding career and help businesses develop a talented workforce that is equipped with skills for the future.
The government’s official apprenticeship support website has a range of resources and information for employers, including those listed below. Take your time and see what support is on offer.

We know that it can often be time-consuming and complex to root through all of the information available – but that’s what Buckinghamshire Business First is here for!
