Apprenticeships are now even better primed to upskill the nation’s workforce and support national recovery in 2024, after a major programme of reviews. The DfE set IfATE a target of reviewing 100 apprenticeships in between April and the end of December 2023. IfATE over-delivered by reviewing 127, including many resulting in significant funding uplifts. These are collectively used by over 60,000 apprentices per year. Education Minister, Rob Halfon, said: “This is a fantastic achievement. It’s vital that we ensure all apprenticeships remain up to date and offer high quality training so more people and businesses can benefit, and we can grow the economy.” Click here for more and here for FE Week commentary.
