Questions from Slough employers
Is AI apprenticeship training really funded for Slough employers?
Small businesses potentially pay nothing towards the training itself, only the wage. We confirm your funding position before anyone starts.
Can we put existing staff through it, or does it have to be a new hire?
Existing staff can do an apprenticeship. It is often the better option, because they already know your business.
Which course suits employers in Slough?
AI and Automation Practitioner Level 4 fits the local sector mix most closely, because transport and storage runs at 2.3 times the national share here. We confirm the right fit before enrolment.
How much time does the apprentice need away from the job?
There is a set amount of learning away from normal duties. It is scheduled around the job rather than in one go.
Do you deliver in Slough or is it online?
Training is delivered online by approved, APAR registered partners, so staff in Slough take part without travelling.
