Due to the complexity of the apprentice’s technical roles, the expertise of the Training Officer was uppermost in finding the correct pathway. This proved to be [a] daunting task, but the Training Officer showed a wealth of knowledge in his relentless search to ensure the quality of the pathway met our needs.

I have found Tyne North Training to be very thorough in their research and understanding of our company; taking into account what the company wants; but also matching it to the apprentices’ area of interest, skills and career aspirations.

PHC

The Training Officers at Tyne North Training always take great care to ensure that we are given the best choice of apprentice to recruit and a thorough service over the duration of the training. We especially like the policy of a specific apprenticeship craft such as welding being assessed by a time served welding Training Officer.

The quality of training, and support has consistently met our expectations, providing our apprentices with a strong technical foundation and a clear understanding of industry standards.

Apprenticeship Funding

Apprenticeships are funded in two different ways depending on the size of the employer…

Larger Employer

Larger employers who pay the apprenticeship levy (have an annual pay bill of over £3million) will pay the apprenticeship levy as a tax every month to HMRC. They will also register for an online Apprenticeship Service Account and once the account is set up, HMRC pay the levy straight into the account and the Government tops it up with an extra 10%.

Funds in the Apprenticeship Service Account can then be spent on apprenticeship training delivery. Once an apprentice is registered on the account, the funding is paid monthly to Tyne North Training and if the funds in the Apprenticeship Service Account run out then the government will pay 95% of any overspend – the employer has to pay 5% of any overspend.

Smaller Employer

Smaller employers who do not pay the apprenticeship levy (have an annual pay bill of less than £3million) depending on the age of the apprentice, the apprenticeship will either be fully funded by the government or the employer will have to pay 5% of the cost.

For those employers who take on an apprentice aged between 16 and 21 years old on the start date of the apprenticeship will be fully funded by the government and the employer will not be liable for any cost.

For those employers who take on an apprentice who is 22 years of age or over on the start date of the apprenticeship, the employer will be liable for 5% of the cost.

All employers manage their apprenticeships funded via an online Apprenticeship Service Account. Follow the link below for guidance on how to set up your account.
