The Apprenticeship Levy – use it OR lose it!

Act now before it’s too late

If you pay the Apprenticeship Levy, you need to be aware that funds expire 24 months after they enter your Digital Apprenticeship Service online account.

It’s therefore important for you to act soon if you want to take full advantage and receive maximum return on investment. 

Use our added-value levy consultancy service to fully understand and make best use of your funds.

More affordable than you think

The cost for training existing and new employees is spread across the entire length of the Apprenticeship programme, with 20% not paid until right at the end, so upskilling your workforce is much more affordable than you might think.

As a levy payer the Government will also top up your digital account by 10%.

If you wish to do more Apprenticeships than your levy pot can afford then you only pay 10% of the additional cost, with the Government paying the other 90%.

There is also a £1,000 incentive for recruiting a 16-18 year-old Apprentice or a 19-24 year-old Apprentice with additional learning needs or an Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan.
