Funding and Levy Support
Understanding apprenticeship funding should not be a barrier. We help employers identify the right route and make the process clear, manageable and cost-effective.
Levy-paying employers
If your annual pay bill is more than £3 million, you pay the apprenticeship levy at 0.5% of your annual pay bill. Levy funds can be used to pay for apprenticeship training and assessment, and funds typically expire after 24 months if unused.
Non Levy-paying employers
If your organisation does not pay the levy, the government generally funds 95% of apprenticeship training costs, with the employer contributing 5% through co-investment.
Levy transfer support Candidates
Some employers may be able to access transferred levy funds from larger organisations, helping reduce or remove the employer contribution where available. We can support you in identifying and accessing these opportunities where possible.
