On 1 June 2021, the Department for Education (DfE) announced extra funding for employers of all sizes that take on new apprentices. The incentive applies to businesses that hire apprentices between 1 April 2021 and 30 September 2021. Businesses can apply to claim £3000 for each new apprentice hired as a new employee from 1 April until 30 September.

The initiative is meant to promote training and skills development throughout the country. The cash incentive is designed to encourage employers to invest in a skilled workforce they need for the future. Through the programme, employers can choose how to spend the cash; for example, they can offer to cover uniforms or travel costs for the apprentices.

The boost to the apprenticeship incentive scheme was confirmed by the Chancellor in the Budget in March 2021 as part of the Government’s Plan for Jobs announced in conjunction with its Build Back Better policies. The funding builds on existing measures to protect, support and create more jobs while bringing the country’s skills and education system closer to the employer market and widening the opportunities that are available.

Gillian Keegan, Minister for Apprenticeships and Skills said, “Apprenticeships are a fantastic way for employers large and small to grow their businesses and will continue to play a key role in our economic recovery. This cash boost will help even more employers to invest in their future workforce, creating more high quality apprenticeship opportunities so businesses have the skilled talent pipeline they need to thrive, not just today but also in the future.”

Helena Baxter, apprenticeship lead, Walsall Council said, “Apprenticeships are good for business, as apprentices can be moulded and shaped in their area of expertise, to deliver the exact skills your business needs. Continuing to bring apprentices into the business, even in such difficult times, is important to protect our future, whilst ensuring we continue to deliver the vital services our communities depend upon. I would urge all employers to continue to recruit, and to benefit from government incentives to ease financial burden, whilst offering exciting and rewarding careers opportunities to apprentices.
