Why Apprenticeships Work
(When done properly)
01
Develop skills for the future
Grow talent trained for your business, your standards and your future needs.
02
Reduce cost, not capability
Invest once in people who grow with you, rather than relying on buying in expensive talent.
03
Create loyalty and stability
Supported apprentices stay longer, perform better and strengthen teams.
What Our Clients Say
Charli Godfrey
Director, Athene ARC
“Found us a fantastic apprentice.”
Apprenticeship Central not only advised us on the best route but also found us a fantastic first apprentice. They handled all the screening, saving us hours of work, and set everything up with the college so the process felt effortless. We’re also using the RETAIN service to help us navigate this new journey with confidence.”
Mark Hutchins
Operations Director, Fix Auto UK
“A truly wrap-around service.”
From designing the blueprint and onboarding sites, to supporting recruitment and now guiding apprentices through the programme, they deliver a truly wrap-around service. By taking the stress and paperwork away from our franchisees, Apprenticeship Central have made a remarkable impact helping us hire a record 52 apprentices for our 2025 cohort.
Darren Keylock
Area Support Manager, Motofix Accident Repair
“Instrumental in enhancing this year’s recruitment process.”
While we operate a well-established internal programme, Apprenticeship Central has been instrumental in enhancing this year’s recruitment process: from candidate screening and interview coordination to ensuring every applicant receives clear, constructive feedback. Their involvement has reduced the administrative load of early-stage recruitment, allowing our teams to focus more on onboarding and developing new talent.
Claire Newland
Chief Finance Officer, Mipa Paints
“Helped us shape a more bespoke training route that suits our business.”
We needed something slightly different to the standard apprenticeship model, and Apprenticeship Central helped us shape a more bespoke training route that suits our business. Their understanding of the options available and how to piece it all together has been invaluable. We’ve been particularly impressed by the calibre of the candidate they’ve found for us – a great attitude, strong potential and someone we genuinely look forward to developing within our business
