As many of you may know the National Apprenticeship Office (NAO) have recently launched an online Apprenticeship Employer Listing detailing current apprentice employers by region and apprenticeship programme.
Feedback from apprenticeship partners, including apprentice employers, raised that it can often be difficult for employers and potential apprentices to connect when accessing apprentice employment opportunities. In an effort to address this, the NAO have launched this listing to provide a practical support in this area.
This was launched last week as a pilot with a plan underway to make this more interactive via the website in the future whereby users will be able to search by region and/or programme directly. The current version was launched to support those evaluating options for the upcoming August/September period.
The listing details currently live apprentice employers by employer name only. NAO contacted all employers by email or post prior to the launch to highlight the introduction of this service and to also allow them time to opt out if they wished to. Any new employers added in the future will continue to be notified in the same manner. Should you, or any other stakeholders you may be dealing with, have any feedback in relation to this please contact NAO via [email protected].
