What is the
Apprenticeship Levy?
Announced in 2015 and implemented in 2017, the Apprenticeship Levy can be thought of as a UK-wide tax on organisations who have a total salary bill of more than £3M. The payments can only be spent on apprenticeship training delivered by approved apprenticeship training providers, and supports quality programmes by putting employers at the centre of the system.
