The BTC Business Development team will be going live on Tuesday 29 September at 5pm to inform businesses on what support is available and how to access the funding. This will give employers the opportunity to ask any questions they may have and understand more about what Apprenticeships are available to them.

This is BTC’s fifth in the #WorkingTogether webinar series where the College invites employers from across the region and beyond to work together in training the next generation workforce on the skills and knowledge they’ll need to support business.

With the government’s latest pledge to boost employability through a variety of different schemes and to provide young people with a better start, Bridgwater & Taunton College are here to support and advise businesses on the opportunities and new incentives now available for recruiting an Apprentice, Trainee or taking on an Industry Placement student.

Businesses across the region will be supported by the College’s expert Business Development team who will advise and guide employers on all of the options available to help rebuild and grow business productivity.

On Wednesday 8 July, Rishi Sunak announced a brand new £2000 bonus for employers who recruit an apprentice aged 16-24 and a £1500 bonus to employers who hire an apprentice aged 25 years+ by 31 January 2021.
