CCS supports Government's apprenticeships pledge

CCS is supporting Government's pledge to support 3 million apprenticeships

Procurement forms a key part of the Government’s pledge to support 3 million apprenticeships by 2020. As part of the commitment to widen the number and range of businesses that invest in apprenticeships, when businesses bid for relevant contracts with Central Government worth £10 million or more, their bids will be reviewed in line with best practice for the number of apprentices that they expect to support. This projection will then be written in to the ensuing contract with action taken if the commitment is not met.

We will publish details of the changes shortly. These changes, which take effect from 1 September, will apply to Central Government Departments, their Executive Agencies and Non Departmental Public Bodies.
