West Sussex employers can now apply to West Sussex County Council for funding to train an apprentice.
As of April 2019, employers paying into the Apprenticeship Levy can now transfer up to 25% of their annual levy funding pot to other employers which will pay for the training costs of apprenticeship qualifications. These changes mean that West Sussex County Council can support other organisations to train existing and new staff with an apprenticeship. The next deadline for applications is 31 May 2019.
