Whether you recruit school leavers, graduates or are training current staff you could use the new apprenticeship programmes to help with your talent development programme.
Since the introduction of the apprenticeship standards for accountancy roles in 2016 and 2017 we have onboarded over 1,000 apprentices now onto our high quality programmes.
We believe apprenticeships offer a significant opportunity for both employers and apprentices. Our apprentices come from a range of backgrounds, vary in age and are at various stages of their careers. We work with them and their employers to develop their individual technical and all-round skills that help businesses to thrive and grow.

We believe an apprenticeship offers a real alternative to the standard routes of work or higher education. Combining the best of both worlds, they give you the chance to develop skills and knowledge that are directly related to your chosen industry whilst also earning a salary.
When you’re thinking of starting an apprenticeship programme, the information received can often seem overwhelming. We’ve broken this down and created these handy resources to help you make the right decision and get started on your accounting career journey.

As an apprentice, you’ll receive investment from your employer to boost your career. With the emphasis on training in the skills employers want, you’ll be ahead of the game.
