Government Funded Training Part ii

In March of this year we wrote about an Apprenticeship Support organisation - QA Ltd.

At ONA (#liquoricestrands) we support Apprenticeships. We have a very successful apprentice working with ONA currently, soon to graduate in Sept of this year. 

As we support this workplace opportunity, we wanted to pass on the following information about new government funded training for employers, for all current employees aged 16-24.

This means you can access £10,000 - £12,000 of training funded by the government by signing up a member of staff on one of our apprenticeship schemes.

The three courses included are Systems & Networking, Software & Web Development and Digital Marketing.  Your employees can gain relevant qualifications which include (Level 3 Diplomas & Microsoft Technical Associate Awards).

Course details are as follows.
