Smaller companies who don’t pay the apprenticeship levy, have access to the government’s funding to support with the cost of apprenticeship training.
From August 2026, the Government will fully fund apprenticeship training and assessment costs for all eligible apprentices under the age of 25 employed by non-levy paying employers. These payments are made directly to the apprenticeship training provider and the End Point Assessment Organisation.
Small businesses can also access additional funding and support through the apprenticeship levy transfer system. This system allows large businesses with unspent apprenticeship levy funds to transfer up to 50% of their funds to other employers to help cover the costs of apprenticeship training and assessment.
