Yes, it’s National Apprenticeship Week—the time when everyone sings the praises of apprenticeships as the perfect solution for skills shortages, youth employment, and business growth. But let’s be real…
For many businesses, apprenticeships can feel like a maze of red tape—funding rules, compliance headaches, and the constant worry of investing in someone who might leave the moment they’re qualified. And for apprentices? Not all programs deliver on their promise, leaving them stuck in low-paid roles with limited progression.
At HR Caddy, we cut through the fluff and help businesses make apprenticeships actually work by:
- Navigating Compliance Nightmares – Because getting it wrong can be costly
- Finding Apprentices Who Stick Around – No one wants to train someone else’s future hire.
- Making Retention a Priority – Keeping top talent beyond the apprenticeship period.
Done right, apprenticeships can be a game-changer. Done wrong, they’re just another revolving door of hiring. Want to avoid the pitfalls? Give HR Caddy a call today on 03330 341505, or email us on enquiries@hrcaddy.co.uk
