Apprenticeships / Work Placements


Acorn Group has entered into a partnership with PeoplePlus who facilitate government funded work placements for young people aged 16-24 to give them the opportunity to gain the skills they need to start a new career.
Now more than ever, there is a high proportion of people, who have been negatively impacted by C19, or who have simply never chosen the right direction career wise, who are motivated to get into professional employment, but they lack the qualifications, experience or know-how. Traineeships tackle this problem, whilst enabling companies to take on enthusiastic individuals whose skills can be moulded to suit the needs of the business.
Typically lasting between 6 weeks and 12 months, traineeships focus on developing vital employability skills, alongside additional English, maths and digital skills, combined with a work placement lasting a minimum of 70 hours. Employers and training providers like PeoplePlus, work together to develop a traineeship that is right for the business and the young person – offering a perfect blend of real-life work experience and tailored skills support.
Traineeships are a great way for businesses to inject young talent into their work force on a work-placement basis and shape a talented potential long-term employee or apprentice.
As the leading provider of skills support in the UK, PeoplePlus can work with employers to develop bespoke traineeships that are contextualised to each employer, ensuring that the training element of the traineeship is fit for purpose.
