Up to 8,000 [pounds sterling] awaits you to help train apprentices.(Points of view)
In his third article for CFJ, Robert MacGregor, business support manager for ConstructionSkills, talks about how best to manage and support apprentices through the training process:
IN September and October I wrote in this column, discussing why businesses should take on apprentices and how to find the right apprentice.
The construction industry is booming and for businesses to reap the benefits, it is vital that they help to train the next generation of personnel for the sector.
However, once a business has spent time and effort recruiting the right apprentice for their business, the last thing an employer needs s for the apprentice not to settle in and leave before their training is complete.
Although each business is different, there are some key steps all companies can take to help retain their apprentices throughout training and beyond.
Over 70% of ConstructionSkills apprentices complete their training and this high completion rate (the best in the industry) continues to increase year on year.
We believe this is because we spend as much time making sure apprentices and employers are happy alter recruitment, as we do ensuring the right apprentice is placed with the right firm.
