Flexi-Job Apprenticeship Agencies Register Opening 2023
Authority: Department for Education (Central government)
In February 2022 we launched our new Register of Flexi-Job Apprenticeship Agencies. Flexi-Job Apprenticeship Agencies help employers overcome structural barriers to making greater use of apprenticeships. They support businesses in all sectors to make a sustainable investment in the skills they need to grow and build a diverse talent pipeline for the future. We will be inviting applications from 28th April 2023 for more organisations to become Flexi-Job Apprenticeship Agencies and we will be running a webinar on Tuesday 9th May at 12pm-1pm to explain the purpose of Flexi-Job Apprenticeship Agencies, what organisations need to do to apply to become an agency and to cover some of the key information found within our published guidance documents.
