What Can An Apprentice Do For Your Business?

Stuart Goudge from The Light Bulb got in touch, because they want to spread the news about how beneficial a apprentice can be to your business growth and success. To prove a point they sent us a testimonial from an Essex based business on the benefits. Not only good for your bottom line, but good for the local economy and community – now what’s not to like about that!

Mark Williamson from Floor Coverings Essex took on 2 Apprentices in 2011 and has given them both a glowing report and high praise:

 “When the guys started with us they had no knowledge of the floor industry.  They were shy around customers and struggled engaging them in conversation. In conjunction with TheLightBulb they have progressed so much and picked up so many new skills that have really helped the business.  After the different stages of training they relieved some of the pressure that comes with running a business and I now see them as assets rather than apprentices.  I can’t see why anyone would not want to take on an apprentice.  As well as providing an individual with a chance in life, from a business perspective you are seen to be doing something that adds values to people’s lives”. 

And the great thing is that at The BWN, your staff are able to access great training at every event – because every event includs a 45 minute workshop targetting a key area of business. So your staff can become effective communicators, networkers, great ambassadors for your company AND learn new skills and ideas to grow your business from us all for as little as £11 an event!

No wonder we are attracting new women in business every month!
