We are fast approaching the 24-month time-frame by which Apprenticeship Levy paying organisations will be required to start paying back their contributions. ‘While attitudes are clearly improving, a significant number (40%) of business leaders still regard the apprenticeship levy as little more than a tax. And as levy-paying organisations have only withdrawn eight per cent of the £1.8 billion paid into the apprenticeship levy so far, there are clearly still a number of barriers to overcome’[1].
It is not all doom and gloom however and with new Apprenticeship programmes being released every month there currently is, more than ever, increased opportunity between now and April 2019 to maximise use of your hard-earned Levy fund.
