The right apprenticeship is the right person, in the right place at the right time.
But the best apprenticeship frameworks do not happen by accident. It’s about attracting that person, providing space and support for them to grow. Then you’re both unstoppable!
We’ve worked with the Department of Education, apprentice employers big and small, and with apprentices and their families, training providers and policymakers to create our framework.
With help from some of the most trusted brands in the UK, from Nestlé to Bentley, the Ministry of Defence to the NHS and the Young Apprentice Ambassador Network, we’ve built this framework to help you create successful and powerful apprenticeship programmes.
We use our framework to assess how well you’re supporting your apprentices at work, including development, communication and support.
Helping you to build an apprentice experience to support your organisation’s skills requirement and succession planning.
An assessment might sound daunting, but it isn’t. It’s a chance for our practitioner to get to know your company, your apprenticeship programme and your people.
Everybody in your organisation will have a chance to share their thoughts, feelings and opinions.
At the end of the assessment, we’ll take all of our findings and turn them into a report summing up what we found, and give you recommendations to help you improve.
See how you benchmark against global organisations as well as your competitors.
You’ll also find out what level you’ve achieved : Silver, Gold or Platinum.
Becoming accredited is an achievement to celebrate! But it’s not the end of the journey. Your accreditation lasts for three years, and we’ll help you create an action plan for what changes your company’s going to make over that time.
An action plan designed to support the evolution of your strategy.
Ample networking opportunities and the chance to share your story
Stand out from other apprentice employers. Raise your profile and reputation by showing you are ahead of other organisations.
Attract better talent. Good apprentices want to work for good employers.
Unlimited access to free thought leadership events
Free entry in The Investors in People Awards where we celebrate the best and the boldest organisations, rewarding their great work.
Commitment’s about hiring apprentices for the right reasons. And treating them right. Do you design recruitment and inductions around the apprentice and the programme they’re doing? Do they understand what they’ll be doing? Are they rewarded appropriately?
Development’s about helping apprentices become the best they can be. Are you committed to their education and learning? Do you set them stretching objectives? Are your line managers 100% on board? What are you doing to support them with their assessments?
Communication & Support’s about making sure there’s a good relationship between apprentices, line managers and training providers. Is there a structured partnership? Do apprentices know their voice matters? Is their wellbeing top priority? Do you celebrate and recognise individual successes?
Join us for an introduction to We invest in apprentices!
We’ll be talking through our We invest in apprentices framework, breaking down the key areas, walking through the process and sharing the impact that achieving the accreditation can have on your business.
