Apprenticeship Units Registration
Training providers must join an official register to offer new 'apprenticeship units' through the reformed growth and skills levy.
Kate Ridley-Pepper, director of work-based skills in the Department for Work and Pensions, confirmed that the content of each unit will be drawn from existing apprenticeships.
The design approach will ensure that government and employers know that all apprenticeship units have "the rigour to be really high-quality products".
- Providers need to register with the government to deliver new apprenticeship units.
- Content of each unit will come from existing apprenticeship standards.
- Both government and employers will be assured of high-quality products.
