Thu27Mar201410.00-15.00Life Long Learning Centre, Carn Gwaval
Cornwall Apprenticeship Agency is hosting a shared apprentice event, beneficial to Island businesses who might be interested in sharing an apprentice.
The Agency was set up to support small businesses and in particular seasonal businesses who were unable to meet the criteria of employing an Apprentice. Some of the barriers include the situation where a single business does not have enough work for an apprentice full time or need support with employment. But a couple of businesses in similar sectors may be able to share an Administration Apprentice. The Agency would employ the apprentice on behalf of both employers. We would work then work with training providers to deliver the training.
