Smart Training & Recruitment works in partnership with all types of employers and their employees to improve skills

Are you a business with skills gaps?

Did you know you can build a loyal, skilled and dependable workforce by upskilling your existing team – resulting in improved productivity and reduced staff turnover? We deliver coaching skills so both your line manager and learner gain from the Apprenticeship experience.

  • Fill key skill gaps in your business
  • Boost employee motivation by investing in their development
  • Improve retention

For example, an experienced employee may be keen to get a formal qualification in their specialist area. Or perhaps someone has the aptitude and drive to learn something new and progress into a different role?

There are courses from level 2 to level 5 so you’ll be able to find the right Apprenticeship that suits the learning and development needs of your employees. Our courses are designed by employers so they reflect the relevant knowledge, skills and behaviours that your business needs.

Are you are Levy or non-Levy employer? We’ll help guide you through everything Levy related and provide you with complete support for your Digital Apprenticeship Service (DAS) account administration or set up.
