The world’s top 10 employers for apprenticeship experts

It is no secret that the UK is one of the top ten employers for trainees in the world. 

But how many of the world’s largest companies are looking to fill their apprenticeship pipeline?

This is a very competitive market, according to the Institute of Education and Skills (IESA).

The Institute says the number of apprenticeships that are being created each year has increased by nearly 400% in the last decade.

The IESA’s latest apprenticeship figures show that companies such as Tata, Vodafone, and Tata Advanced Education are looking at the recruitment of advancement specialists (AS) and trainees (TFs).

According to IESA, the number of AS trainees and TFs employed in the UK has increased from just over 10,000 in 2012 to more than 19,000 today.

While the IESAs figures are relatively small in terms of the total number of new apprenticeships, they do represent a significant increase from the last two years, when the number was just under 3,000.

I know that the number one employer is Tata, but how many other companies are looking at filling the role?

I’m glad you asked. According to IISA, there are about 300,000 adventure and trainee roles in the US alone. 

However, the IISA is concerned about the recruitment and retention of trainee advisors (TAs).

 According to the Institution, Tasmanian company BMC has been the top employer of TAs in the United States for years.

However, the IISI also claims that BMB is also the largest employer of TF advisers in the country. 

It is the latter category that the IFSA would like to see more of. According the Institute, as of 2015, BMI had more than 6,000 TAs in the United States, with the majority of them working at the company’s flagship retail stores. 

In the United Kingdom, BMB has around 5,200 advisor jobs, which is about 3.5% of its workforce.

BMB’s TAs are being asked to supervise training of the trainers and to facilitate training sessions for train ees as the market for trainee experience shrinks. BMs also has a contract with Teamspeak Network to help the firm with training and recruitment. 

This contract is pending and is expected to take effect in 2020. 

What do you think about the increasing numbers of companies looking to recruit and retain trainee advisors?
