APPRENTICE DEVELOPMENTAn investment in your apprentices is an investment in the future of your business. At Brathay, we believe in developing people to achieve their full potential, which is why we work with employers across the country to provide bespoke development solutions for all levels of emerging talent. In an unrivalled learning environment we deliver challenging, engaging and thought provoking programmes to equip apprentices with vital tools for success including teamwork, communication, confidence, planning and personal goal setting.

DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR YOUR NEEDSBy taking the time to understand your organisation’s culture, values and history we are able to give apprentices an experience that enhances their apprenticeship with behaviours and competencies that are directly transferrable to their workplace. From the start, each apprentice takes responsibility for their own performance and ownership of the results they achieve. Our research shows apprentice delegates in Brathay programmes develop into engaged employees committed to completing their training.

SUPERVISING OTHERSFor higher apprentices moving toward management roles, we develop their mentoring and leadership capability as well as their personal ability to bring out the best in others.

“Brathay provide a three-tiered solution integral to our training programme that develops:

• Self-awareness and a working mind-set as our trainees begin their training with us.• Interpersonal skills and collaboration in the workplace through group projects.• The resilience to drive best practice as they leave our training environment and enter the workplace full-time.”
