There doesn't seem to be much information out there in terms of taking on an apprentice.
There is many training providers out there... Those that offer level 4 apprenticeships seem to charge fees in the region of £2.5k. Yet distance learning providers charge around £700-£800 mark.
The fees is being covered by the employee who is over 25.
The training provider is also an authorised training center with the accounting body as will be the more expensive providers.
So what's stopping the apprentice enrolling on the significantly cheaper distance learning course and coming in to practice as an apprentice? This apprenticeship wage. As he used them for level 3 and is happy with them and doesn't want to pay over the odds for the same thing.
Or the employers have to be authorised by a body or anybody to take on an apprentice?
What are the rules and regs surrounding this?
