Can I get extra funding if I want my apprentice to do extra training?

Whether you can get extra funding for your apprentices depends on the apprenticeship costs that are agreed at the beginning of the programme with Firebrand, according to the apprentices’ job description, the skills required and digital apprenticeship standard.

If upon agreeing the apprenticeship programme, employers don't not use all the budget up to the maximum funding band, they can add extra Firebrand courses to cover this gap and further train their apprentices.

Firebrand apprenticeship programmes have a preselected course schedule that cover all knowledge modules from the standard to ensure that apprentices are thoroughly educated and set up for success. However, if an employer contacts us who has an experienced and partially educated employee they would like to enroll on the programme they may find it necessary to remove a course in our preselected schedule and replace with another. This can be done as long as the final cost does not exceed the maximum funding band.
