Jan 04, 2013, 09:36 AM

New #Apprenticeships radio commercials go live across the country on 7th January 2013 featuring real employers talking about the benefits Apprenticeships bring to their businesses.

In this commercial, John Cliff (Owner, J A Cliff Building Services) and James Lawrence (Apprenticeship Programme Manager, Visa Europe) describe why hiring young people is vital for any business.

The commercials also promote the availability of the Apprenticeship Grant for Employers of 16 to 24 year olds which was launched by the National Apprenticeship Service to provide grants of £1,500 to employers who opt to grow their business through Apprenticeships.

For more information on the AGE 16-24 grant, visit http://www.apprenticeships.org.uk.
