Essex Apprenticeship Levy Transfer Service (EALTS)
EALTS facilitates the transfer of unspent apprenticeship levy from larger organisations to local small and medium sized enterprises. This helps smaller businesses to fund apprenticeships for new and current team members.
The Essex Apprenticeship Hub can also answer any questions you may have about apprenticeships. This team of experts can promote your vacancies, connect you to local training providers and even match you to young people seeking an apprentice. The service, run by Essex County Council, also helps businesses to offer apprenticeships to their workforce to support learning and development.
