2017 will bring a fundamental change to the way large UK based employers think about and plan their Learning and Development.

The Employer Apprenticeship Levy comes into force early in 2017. You have time now to consider the implications of this.

We have a team across our Group who are working with other providers and stakeholders and have launched a service to support employers.

Levy Britain - A New National Support Service for Employers

Are you ready to reclaim this money? You can access guidance in relation to this scheme for:
