Excellent news for Apprentices

The new Conservative government has also committed to creating three million more apprenticeships by 2020, as part of their broader drive to get two million more people into work by 2020. A new Jobs Bill is also likely to abolish National Insurance Contributions for apprentices under 25 years old and replace the Jobseeker’s Allowance for 18-21 year-olds with a Youth Allowance that will be time limited to six months.
