At 10:10am, the workshop with Lyndset Flynn will begin. She will discuss how to get the most out of the apprenticeship levy. The levy applies to employers in England, who have an annual pay bill above £3m. They are required to pay a 0.5% fee that can be used to invest in apprenticeship training. A £15,000 allowance is given to employers. The government introduced the apprenticeship levy to help fund the development and delivery of apprenticeships.
At 11am, there will be a break for refreshments. Following this, the group will then be given tours of both the newsroom and the digital media area.
A light lunch in the boardroom will then be provided. There will be networking and a chance to ask the MNA teams any questions.
