Apprenticeships

Hire an Apprentice

Our track record

Since the CMN Group was formed over 20 years ago, we have successfully helped 1,550 people into apprenticeships in the last 15 years and currently deliver 20 different apprenticeships offered across a variety of sector areas.

1.

Offer on-the-job training in a safe working environment

Apprenticeships allow businesses to provide hands-on training while ensuring that apprentices learn in a controlled and safe environment. This helps instil good safety practices and standards from the outset.

2.

Build a Culture of Learning and Development

Hiring apprentices promotes a culture of continuous learning and development within the organisation. This can lead to a more knowledgeable and adaptable workforce.

3.

Higher Staff Retention and Morale

Apprenticeships can lead to higher staff retention rates, as apprentices often feel more loyal to companies that have invested in their training and development. Additionally, offering career development opportunities can boost overall employee morale.

4.

Promote Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace

Apprenticeships can be an effective way to promote diversity and inclusion by providing opportunities to individuals from varied backgrounds, including those who might not follow traditional educational routes.

5.

Tailored Training for the Your Specific Needs

Training programs can be tailored to suit the specific needs of a business and apprenticeship standard, ensuring that apprentices acquire skills that are directly relevant to their roles within the company.

6.

Fresh Perspectives and Innovation

Apprentices often bring fresh ideas and perspectives to the workplace. Their new approaches and enthusiasm can drive innovation and improvement within the company.

7.

Succession Planning

Apprenticeships help with succession planning by developing a pipeline of skilled workers who can eventually fill key positions within the organisation.

8.

Enhanced Productivity

As apprentices become more skilled, they can contribute to higher productivity levels. The practical experience they gain often translates into efficient and effective work performance.

9.

Improved Reputation

Supporting apprenticeships can enhance a company’s reputation as an employer that invests in its people and contributes to community development. This can attract customers and potential employees who value corporate social responsibility.

10.

Alignment with Business Goals

By training apprentices in line with the company’s objectives and methodologies, businesses can ensure that their workforce is well-aligned with their goals and operational strategies.

Apprentice outputs usually surpass their associated costs, delivering a net benefit to employers during their training. They are likely to increase further once the apprentice completes their training and remains with the employer, after apprenticeship costs and expenses are removed and productivity increases.
