Notice Title

Public Sector Commercial Apprenticeship Training Services

Notice Description

Since 6th April, Westminster Council is liable to pay an apprenticeship levy which can be used by the Council to fund the training and assessment costs of apprenticeships for both existing staff and for new recruits. The apprenticeship levy can only be used to fund training against an approved apprenticeship standards and delivered by an approved apprenticeship training provider on the Register of Apprenticeship Training Providers (RoATP).

To date this training has not been delivered and Westminster will be among the first to commence delivery.
