PBD has just launched a scheme which makes great business sense to companies looking to invest now in the skills which will be needed for the economic recovery.
In a drive to encourage businesses to hire young apprentices, we are offering an ‘achievement bonus’ of £500 to the employers of the first 25 young people aged 16 to 18 signed up for apprenticeships in Business & Administration or Customer Service.
What’s more, we will help to recruit the candidate free of charge, using the government’s Apprenticeship Vacancies database.
Janet Dawson, PBD’s Training Director, explains that the £500 bonus is payable to the employer as soon as the young person successfully completes their apprenticeship with PBD.
“Free recruitment, free training and a fully qualified apprentice, with £500 at the end – that’s what we call an effective fiscal stimulus!” says Janet. “And, with youth unemployment at record levels, companies can show their commitment to the local community at the same time.”
PBD’s free training is delivered by a team of friendly expert assessors, supported by state of the art e-learning and e-portfolio systems.
Apprenticeships can be delivered in almost any type of organisation and the minimum apprenticeship wage is £2.60 per hour.
