Hoople listed on Register of Apprenticeship Training Providers

Wednesday 22 March 2017 3.38pm

Hoople Training and Education has received confirmation that it has been accepted onto the Skills Funding Agency’s (SFA) register of apprenticeship training providers (RoATP).

This new registration process is part of the Government’s aim to drive up the quality and quantity of apprenticeships. The RoATP has been introduced by Government also to give assurance to employers and apprentices that providers have the capacity and capability to deliver good quality apprenticeship training.

Inclusion on the register means that from 1 May 2017, Hoople Training and Education can continue to deliver apprenticeship training to employers who are liable to pay the new Apprenticeship Levy. An announcement regarding apprenticeship training provision for non-levy paying employers is expected in May.

Dawn Haymonds, Customer Service Lead at Hoople Training and Education, says: “We have been delivering high quality apprenticeship programmes for many years and so were confident that we would be accepted onto the register of apprenticeship providers. However, it’s always nerve wracking to go through new processes and procedures and so, although we were confident in our application, we were delighted to have our listing confirmed.”

The full list of apprenticeship providers can be found via the Government’s website.
