How could an Apprentice help you?
Employers like you use Apprenticeships to bring new talent and a fresh perspective to their business or to develop the skills of existing staff members. This can improve productivity, reduce recruitment costs and lead to a more motivated workforce.
Everything we do at Stoke on Trent College is industry-focused and career ready and we’re experts in developing Apprentices’ skills, knowledge, and behaviours. All training is delivered by our industry expert assessors and teaching staff, with support from employers and mentors. As an employer, you can pass on your industry expertise to develop the skills of your Apprentice and teach them skills needed to succeed in their chosen career.
