Approved apprenticeship training providers list published

A new register of training providers has launched as part of reforms to quality assure apprenticeships.

As part of reforms to the apprenticeships system, the Government has said most training organisations will not be eligible to deliver training for apprenticeships from 1 May 2017 unless they are on the register.

An exception is organisations which want to deliver less than £100k of apprenticeship training per year as a subcontractor, who will not need to apply ‘for the time being’.

The list includes ‘main providers’ - organisations that can be selected by levy paying employers to deliver apprenticeship training, ‘employer providers’ – levy paying employers permitted to provide training to their own staff or ‘supporting providers’ - organisations that only deliver as a subcontractor to a main provider for contracts worth £100k to £500k per year.
