Are you a small or medium-sized business looking for funding to cover apprenticeship training costs? Or a levy-paying employer eager to expand your apprenticeship programme but facing financial limitations?
The Essex Apprenticeship Levy Transfer Service bridges the gap - connecting businesses with larger companies willing to share their unused levy funds. This enables smaller organisations to invest in vital skills without added financial strain.
Levy-paying businesses can transfer up to 50% of their annual levy funds to support apprenticeships across Essex, ensuring full funding for training and workforce development. Our seamless process makes it easy to receive support or pledge funds.
Whether you need funding or want to contribute towards shaping the next generation of skilled professionals, we’re here to help.

The team are friendly, knowledgeable, and consistently supportive, offering clear guidance at every stage.
