The Ministry of Defence protects the security, independence and interests of our country at home and abroad. They work with our allies and partners whenever possible. Their aim is to ensure that the armed forces have the training, equipment and support necessary for their work, and that they keep within budget. The MOD set up a specific task force to recruit apprentices post A Level, focusing on a level 3 programme. A joint effort between them and South Gloucestershire and Stroud College was implemented for recruitment and through the online assessment of the

MoD and the interview days arranged and supported by SGS College, they were able to select just 15 successful candidates to begin the Level 3 apprenticeship in Supply Chain Management.

The first cohort was so successful that the MOD have decided to recruit a further 2 cohorts (15 candidates in each) for the commercial sector to focus on Procurement and started their first Accountancy cohort last year.

“The process is professional and very smooth and more importantly offers an excellent opportunity for keen young people to experience a challenging and extremely interesting interview and assessment process.“

Jo Harvey from the Defence Commercial Apprentice Programme

CASE STUDY: McDONALDSSouth Gloucestershire and Stroud College ran a 1 week course for us and gave potential employees additional qualifications which would be relevant for the job and something as employers we would value.

They helped prepare them for the whole interview process and as a result we gained 2 very valuable employees.

It was a pleasure to work with them and a relationship we will continue to build upon in the future.’

Samantha Ward People Manager

Nuclear TrainingWith the developments at Hinkley Point C Nuclear Power Station and the proximity of SGS Berkeley Green to Oldbury, the site lends itself to being a training centre for employers to undertake skills development.

The College recognises the importance and need to ensure there are learners with the construction or engineering skills to work on a major build and aim to offer provision in this area in the near future.

ACCESS TO 1000’S OF APPLICANTS... AT NO COST!WORK EXPERIENCE: HAVE YOU CONSIDERED DEVELOPING YOUR WORKFORCE?

Work Experience is a key element of all of our full-time study programmes; with all of our learners expected to complete a minimum of 30 hours.

The college has over 4000 young people who could support your business on a work placement.

Many local employers have benefited from

supporting our learners, as they bring with

them a fresh outlook and youthful dynamism.

It is an opportunity for you to develop your

recruitment channels, raise your community

profile and enable your staff to enhance their

own skills by mentoring and influencing your

possible future workforce.

You will not be expected to pay our

learners but will be expected to be

supportive and understanding.

Our learners are supported by our Work

Placement team who have recently been

awarded the ‘Full Recognition’ standard

of the Work Experience Charter developed

by Stroud District Council. We also work

with large national companies such as Premier

Inn Hotels, and have recently developed

links with NHS England and Barclays Bank.

FUNDING SOLUTIONSUnlike most other Further Education

Colleges, SGS College does not

subcontract any of our Adult Skills

budget. This means that every bit of

our Adult Skills funding is spent in

our communities, supporting local

employers and local learners, as it is

intended. In addition, this means we

have complete end-to-end control

over the quality of our programmes.

It also allows us to be extremely

responsive to employer’s needs as

we do not need to work through a

supply chain to meet your training

requirements.

Moreover, it also delivers best value

for money, as it avoids subcontracting

costs and the full funding is available

to support programme delivery.

OUR FUNDING SOLUTIONS INCLUDE:• Classroom learning

• Adult skills budget

• Traineeships

• 16-18 apprenticeships

• Adult apprenticeships

• ESF funding

• Higher Education Loans

• Advanced Learning Loans

We would be happy to work with you

on a Training Needs Analysis to identify

the best mix of training solutions to

support your business growth.

AGE GRANTBusinesses with under 50 employees

may be eligible for a Government

grant of £1500 to support taking on

their first apprentices. Our employer

engagement team will be happy

to support you in your Age Grant

application.

APPRENTICESHIP REFORMS AND THE APPRENTICESHIP LEVY The Government is reforming the way

in which apprenticeships are funded.

Incentive Payments will become

available to all businesses to support

the Government drive towards 3m

apprenticeship starts. All employers

of whatever size will benefit from

incentive payments for recruiting

16-18 apprentices and for apprentice

achievements. Small and medium

enterprises can benefit from a further

incentive payment for engaging in

apprenticeships.

All businesses with a payroll of

over £3m will be in scope for the

Government apprenticeship levy

from April 2017. We can help you

understand the implications for your

business and how to get the return

on this investment.

As one of the largest Further Education colleges in the South West, SGS College delivers £28.2 million of Government funded training every year.
