Benefits for you
If you’re looking to take on an apprentice who has been made redundant, the Record of Achievement that's part of the plan is a useful record. It contains information about an individual’s abilities and accompanies their CV. It offers:
- quality-assured evidence of an apprentice’s training and qualifications
- a complete record of a job applicant’s skills and achievements
This improves the recruitment process because employers can understand accurately a candidate’s skills and abilities.
