We believe everyone should have the opportunity to learn the skills they need to fulfil their potential, with public sector training that’s both inclusive and accessible and has a positive impact on the UK’s public sector capability.
As a Crown Commercial approved provider (which includes the CCS Apprenticeship Framework), we’re proud to play our part in helping public sector organisations improve the UK workforce with apprenticeship training.
With the government looked upon to lead the way in apprenticeship investment, we’ve not only helped over 17 public sector bodies exceed their previous 2.3% apprenticeship target, but have encouraged growth in key development areas by filling vital civil service skills gaps.
Our programmes have assisted a number of major public sector departments find, train and retain talent at all levels. Flexible delivery means that we can adapt our training to meet specific organisational needs.

We’re proud to have built one of the UK’s largest apprenticeship offerings. Our programmes help over 5,000 people every year find life-changing career opportunities, at the same time helping our partners build a more inclusive, diverse and future-ready workforce.
Working in partnership with civil service recruitment teams, we attract, screen and shortlist potential candidates for multiple roles. From recruiting administrators and customer service teams to project managers and leaders, we provide a service that enables large-scale recruitment drives that also support your social mobility and diversity strategy.
Recruiting externally and improving access to civil service courses reaches and empowers more people in underrepresented communities, disadvantaged locations and low socio-economic groups. By driving social mobility and building a more inclusive workforce, you'll gain far more than just increased apprentice numbers.
We’re fully committed to social mobility across all our practices and processes and have adapted campaigns to actively promote apprenticeships to people with limited access to training. Around 25% of Lifetime apprentices come from locations deemed disadvantaged, showing the invaluable role apprenticeships can play as an education tool.
We’re incredibly proud to be recognised with a prestigious Patron Membership from the BAME Apprenticeship Alliance, which shows our commitment to increasing apprenticeship diversity, inclusivity and access for everyone, both locally and nationally.
This partnership helps us improve the way we work, advise our partners on actions they can take, and supports us build a network of employers all looking to improve their approach to diversity and inclusion with apprenticeships.
To showcase your public service apprenticeship opportunities, the right marketing and communications are invaluable. It’ll help raise the profile (both internally and externally) while educating and encouraging potential candidates.
We use our expertise in effective apprenticeship engagement and communications to work with your teams and within your channels. Together, we make sure the right message reaches the right people, as a fundamental part of all your talent development conversations and workforce planning.
With uncertainty and change at the forefront of business leaders’ minds over the last two years, organisations are currently facing the universal challenge of upskilling their workforce at an accelerated pace.
