Employers Apprenticeship Resources

Apprenticeships are a fantastic tool for recruiting and retaining staff in farming businesses, and to introduce the next generation to farming, but we're aware that there is a lack of straight-forward information about apprenticeships in England and advice on how to navigate the process successfully.

Therefore, we've released an easy-to-use agriculture apprenticeship toolkit covering the different types of training and support available and will help you to make informed decisions to find the right solution for your business and gain the most from your team.

Along with our apprenticeship toolkit, there's also plenty of resources to help support you with practical information about taking on and supporting an apprentice. We've pulled together the most useful links in a handy list below:
