Degree apprenticeships - guide for employers

Employers benefit from hiring degree apprentices in many ways:

• Skills. They help employers find and develop the right talent and skills. Many employers have reported difficulties finding the right recruits at graduate level. Hiring a degree apprentice gives them the opportunity to train a graduate to suit their particular needs, and create a pipeline for talent within the organisation.
• Productivity. Feedback from employers suggests that where they have hired apprentices, it has improved their productivity and the quality of their service.
• Staff satisfaction. Employers who have hired apprentices also report greater staff satisfaction and increased morale.
