Ask your boss to put you on a citb scheme doesnt cost him anything plus gets grants to help costs for his time training you and you get the college training you need and more importantly your qualifications at the end of it

Sounds like theres Citb funding to take an apprentice on.

 

[scottie5]

Welcome along nate dog.

 

[Marshy]

What you on about?

Telling the lad his boss would get grants from citb to put the lad through college. My apprentice just started his 3rd year now. He was 21 when he started tho. I think its open for 16-24 year olds

 

[Marshy]

Its free too. Apart from his wages and yourpublic liabilty goes up abit but nothing major

He's best in his class but most are f**k wits. His attitude is spot on and I always say you can't teach that. He's a great lad to be fair and credit to himself. I'm just the grumpy sod who asks him what the f**k am I doing?

It's worth it mate let us know how you get on etc

So it's not free then!
I know you get grants and college is paid for but the grants don't cover the wages do they?
That's what I was getting at.
If everything was covered I think we'd all have an apprentice because we wouldn't stand to lose nothing.
I'd def take on a young lad if there whole apprenticeship was funded, maybe the government could stop paying the scroungers for doing nothing and pay the young people who actually want to work!
That's another subject though!

That's
I was pointing out if you were going to take a lad on? Then going thro citb is a big help with no college to pay etc plus you get grants. It's over 10 grand if you put him/her through the full 3 years. So not all bad then?

 

[Marshy]

Where's my reply gone ffs !!?? I wrote putting a lad or lass through the full 3 years adds up to just over 10 grand in grants so not all that bad and you don't pay college either unless your a massive company who employs loads and turns over loads per year
