Apprenticeships today put employers in the driving seat to help develop apprentice programmes that are tailored to the needs of the job. But knowing what you need is one thing. Developing a government approved apprenticeship is quite another. That’s where ftc come in. Our team are all food industry or vocational training specialists, so you can count on us for advice grounded in real experience. That experience helps us get the job done. We work with employer groups and the Institute for Apprenticeships to help design and develop apprenticeships, often in record time. Our Butchery Apprenticeship was the first apprenticeship in a food craft occupation to receive government approval. We’re also proud to have delivered the Advanced Butchery Apprenticeship in less than three months from first submission to final approval.
