Details
Flexi-job apprenticeships take place in sectors and occupations that often use short-term contracts or other non-standard employment models.
Employers and apprentices can use an approved flexi-job apprenticeship agency where the agency:
- employs the apprentice for the duration of their apprenticeship
- arranges placements with host businesses
The ‘conditions of registration’ document outlines the conditions that agencies must meet.
Details relating to the framework and specification that we will use to review the quality of approved agencies can be found in the ‘Quality framework for flexi-job apprenticeship agencies’ document.
Information about portable flexi-job apprenticeships, where an approved agency is not required, is available.
