What is the apprenticeship levy? The levy requires all employers within the UK, with an annual pay bill over £3 million to invest in apprenticeships. This is estimated to cost £20m each year across public sector organisations in Hertfordshire. The levy provides a great opportunity for us to continue developing a well-established Apprenticeship scheme creating even more opportunities for both new and current employees.
