Update on Apprenticeships

This is a difficult time for apprentices, employers and providers of apprenticeship training, assessment and external assurance. The government is committed to supporting apprentices, and employers continue to build the skills capabilities the country needs now and in the future.

The Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) is responding by taking steps to ensure that, wherever possible, apprentices can continue and complete their apprenticeship, despite any break they need to take as a result of COVID-19, and to support providers during this challenging time.

Take a look at the updated guidance on new flexibilities for employers, apprentices and providers of apprenticeship training and assessment during the Coronavirus outbreak which was published earlier this week.
