What is an apprenticeship? 
 
Apprenticeships benefit employers and individuals by boosting skills and improving productivity. An apprenticeship is a job with training. It is a way for existing or new employees to learn and gain valuable skills, knowledge and behaviours while they work. Apprenticeships are available across 170 industries. Businesses of all sizes and sectors can offer an apprenticeship through Fareport and they normally last anything from 12 months to 2 years. 
 
The Apprentice Minimum Wage is set to rise on 1st of April 2022, from £4.30 to £4.81 per hour. At Fareport, we believe that employers should look beyond this if they want to recruit and retain the best apprentices. 
As a line manager your role is crucial to the success of the apprenticeship. Without line manager support most apprentices will not fully benefit from doing an apprenticeship and in some cases will struggle to complete their programme. 
 
At Fareport Training we realise that this can be daunting for many busy managers, with almost 1 in 2 managers saying they do not feel confident in supporting their apprentices. We are here to help you and ensure that your apprentice gets the maximum benefit from their apprenticeship programme. 
Whether you have hundreds of apprentices or are considering taking your first one, there are a number of ways you can support your apprentice to make sure they are engaged, motivated and getting the most from their training programme.
