Major employers are being urged to rescue apprenticeship levy funds that are set to expire from the brink, by using them, or sharing them with local companies.

Recently Dr David Lowe, Programme Director, MSc Management Practice joined a panel of leading HR directors at a BusinessDesk.co.uk round table event to discuss the potential for senior leader apprenticeships.

Alliance Manchester Business School has partnered with Northern Care Alliance NHS Group to launch the Group’s first senior leader development programme. The programme, which is being funded via the Group’s payments to the Apprenticeship Levy, will support nearly 50 of its future leaders through health-focused Global MBA and MSc Management Practice courses.

A new survey we launched this week has shown that large numbers of employees and businesses still know nothing about the Apprenticeship Levy suggesting that the entire workplace is simply not grasping the opportunities of the new training initiative.

Alliance MBS and The University of Birmingham have been awarded a five-year contract to deliver the NHS Leadership Academy's award-winning MSc programme.
