Apprenticeship Levy Fund

You may be able to seek funding for a Nithcree course via the Government’s Apprenticeship Levy Fund.

With the Apprenticeship Levy Fund, employers pay into a levy which then allows them to to work with approved training providers (via the Register of Approved Training Providers, or RoATP) to gain training and qualifications for their staff.

Nithcree Training are approved for delivering the apprenticeship levy in England for driving goods vehicles.  We are on the RoATP for the delivery of Driving Goods Vehicles. There is an element of off-the-job training, which must account to 20% of their time being off the job, and must be documented.  There is a mandatory requirement for training which must be class C lorry or above.
