Tailoring Apprenticeships to Fit Your Business Needs
Shape training around your goals with flexible, employer-led bespoke apprenticeship design.

The team at GLP Training understands that every organisation has unique goals and challenges. A flexible approach to apprenticeships allows you to tailor programmes that resonate with your company’s vision, workforce requirements and deliver real ROI.
Some apprenticeship standards come with mandatory embedded qualifications. These are essential certifications your apprentice must achieve as part of their apprenticeship journey — and they’re already included within the funding band. Whether it’s a diploma, certificate, or licence, these embedded qualifications ensure your apprentice is fully equipped for their role and prepared for end-point assessment — all without additional expense to your organisation.
Looking to go beyond the standard? You can enhance your apprenticeship programme by adding additional qualifications that align with your specific business needs. These might include industry-specific certifications or specialist training modules that give your apprentices an edge. In many cases, these can be built into the training plan and sometimes included within your funding or discussed as a co-funded option depending on scope and delivery. GLP Training will work with you to assess what adds value, and how to integrate it effectively.
Closed cohorts are ideal for employers enrolling a larger group of apprentices. Your staff learn together in a dedicated cohort made up solely of your organisation. Training can be shaped around your company’s operations, culture, and specific needs — delivering maximum relevance and impact. This approach supports consistency, strengthens internal networks, and aligns directly with your business objectives.
These are perfect for smaller teams or individual learners. Apprentices join a national cohort with peers from a range of organisations and industries. This option encourages fresh perspectives, broadens understanding of different workplace practices, and builds powerful cross-industry networks — all whilst following a consistent, high-quality training standard.
