Unlocking apprenticeships
With Ongo’s managed service, recruiting and supporting apprentices with the potential to grow and develop your business has never been easier.
Apprenticeships are a time-tested approach to training and developing a skilled workforce
- 96% of businesses with apprentices reported higher staff retention rates than those without.
- 83% of employers rely on apprentices to become skilled workers in the future.
Apprenticeships are open to all ages, and they can help your business in a number of ways. We asked some of our current clients and these are their favourite benefits:
- They help you to build a workforce of skilled workers.
- You can gain workers with customised skills.
- They help to boost retention.
- They help to provide a positive return on investment.
- They help to support your corporate social responsibility.
- They help to fill skills gaps.
Apprenticeships are unique in that they offer the best of both worlds — they allow organisations to choose and nurture the skills they need while providing employees with the training to succeed in their roles.
Sometimes, recruiting and managing apprentices can be a challenge. For small and medium-sized businesses, navigating paperwork and overseeing performance can quickly become demanding and time-consuming. For larger businesses, the process of recruiting and managing apprentices can add significant workload and operational strain.
Our managed service takes the pressure off by handling the advertising and recruitment, line management and performance development, and supporting the mental health of your employees. Our friendly and supportive team offer a cost-effective solution that helps you build a skilled and motivated workforce for the future, while saving you time and resources.
