Merry Christmas from JGA
Richard Goodwin
Managing Director @ JGA Group | MBA from Warwick Business School Apprenticeships and funded training
We understand that this year has been eventful for most. We would like to take a moment to wish you a merry festive season. Below we have listed a few highlights from the year ...
A Christmas present - money from the government
Please don’t forget that employers of apprentices are entitled to various financial incentives – make sure your payroll team is claiming for your apprentices. Grants may be available for recruits of all ages (and are particularly generous for starts until the end of March 2021).
Salaries of all apprentices aged under 25 are also exempt from class 1 employer’s National Insurance Contributions. Please make sure that your payroll team are claiming these benefits which can be worth several thousand pounds.
If you have any doubt about entitlements please speak with your usual contact or email [email protected]
JGA named Learning Provider of the Year in BAME Apprenticeship Awards 2020
JGA was credited for leading by example and making real change and real impact within BAME communities. Due to Covid-19, the awards ceremony, planned to take place at the Edgbaston stadium was replaced with an awesome online extravaganza featuring a moving musical performance from Aston Performing Arts Academy.
Apprentices experience bid process in a virtual world
The final module of the Bid & Proposal Coordinator apprenticeship featured a role play scenario-based activity in a virtual world. Teams focused on developing their soft skills and behaviours.
