Since the start of April 2017, organisations in the UK with a payroll over £3 million have been paying 0.5% of their payroll value into an apprenticeship levy. This money can only be spent on formal apprenticeship programmes with registered training and employer providers. There has been disappointment that the levy has not been able to be used to its full extent, so it is, at the moment, a cost pressure for organisations.
This webinar will discuss the topic of apprenticeships and give delegates an understanding of how their organisation can best utilise the levy. The webinar will also introduce the HFMA's new healthcare-focused Level 4 Accountancy Apprenticeship. This webinar will cover:
- What is the levy and how does it work?
- Who is eligible?
- What is the Level 4 Apprenticeship in Accounting?
- What is the structure of the programme?
- What is the time commitment?
- What are the business benefits of the programme?
