This week, Natasia Hieber joins Lucinda for a masterclass in apprenticeships, focusing specifically upon helping to make them work for our organisations, but also to understand how we can use apprenticeships to further our HR careers.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
HR apprenticeships are a wonderful way to learn, as so often we learn about HR, but are unable to translate these learnings to our organisations. By learning through apprenticeships programmes, we have to learn the specifics that fit our organisations.
In order to gain government funding for apprenticeships, organisations usually need to have more than 50 employees, or be regarded as as sizeable concern.
Apprentice’s payments are funded up to 80% by the government, with 20% being paid by the organisation. Furthermore, the government is able to pay this contribution through a tax reduction for the company.
Indeed, apprenticeships allow for organisations to fully train their professionals to CIPD standards without having to fund the entirety of such development. Another positive is that we see this growth happen in real time.

BEST MOMENTS
‘You’re basically getting free talent for your organisation’ 
’This is great time to create funded roles’ 
’This is a great way for organisations to grow, and to develop new talent into the business’ 
‘Apprenticeships bring creativity out'
