Important Information about the Apprenticeship Grant for Employers

From 1 December 2010, the National Apprenticeship Service (NAS) are making grants available to provide valuable financial support to employers wishing to take on an unemployed Apprentice aged 16, 17 and 18 years. There are a total of 450 grants of £2000 available to small employers (50 employees), who wish to take on an Apprentice for the first time. Either the employer or the apprentice must be based in the East Midlands to be eligible.

The National Apprentice Service and Chesterfield College will soon be holding a series of road shows across the East Midlands to provide further information. Formal invitations to these events will be sent early next week, but as we are sure that you will wish to attend, we would like to give you the opportunity to reserve the date in your diary now.
