This week, we meet Del, Director and part of the VT foundation duo!

A look at why misconceptions of apprenticeships is preventing employers from accessing funding to develop their management workforce.

Varsity Training is pleased to announce that it is now able to offer Advanced & Higher Apprenticeships with apprenticeship funding available.  This can mean that the cost of training is fully covered with no cost to the employer or student.  We now have availability on our level 3 & 5 Health & Social Care programmes.  Please contact us if you need any further information.

Varsity Training is pleased to announce that we are now in the position to be able to offer 24+ Learning Loans for our level 3 & 4 health and social care diplomas.

We are an approved City & Guilds Centre and a delivery partner with the National Skills Academy for Health. Varsity Training offers both fully taught – employees attending training one day a week throughout duration of programme – and vocationally assessed versions of the diplomas.

When applying for a 24+ Advanced Learning Loan, there is no credit check and household income isn’t taken into account — with loan repayments only beginning once you’re earning £21,000 a year.

You only pay back 9% of any earnings over the £21,000 and the repayments are taken directly from your wage through the tax system, from April 2016.

Please contact us for more detail.

Tried to cover sandwiches with ‘healthy’ prawn thing so diet is fine!

Just in break between workshops. Lots of people interested in the fact that we actually teach all the units on our diplomas rather than just assess. Surprised on the interest in the level 4 programme.

Looking forward to meeting new and old colleagues at the UWE conference centre tomorrow.
