Most of the training cost is paid by government. Here's how.
For new starts from August 2026, government pays 100% of the training and assessment cost if you don't pay the levy, or your levy funds have run out. Most of the vacancies we fill qualify.
Plus a £2,000 hiring payment for non-levy employers from October 2026.Government pays the other 95% of the training and assessment cost directly to Solveway. You pay the apprentice's wages as you would any employee.
The training is paid from your levy account. We help you set up the apprenticeship service account and reserve the funds. If your funds run out, 16 to 24-year-olds are still fully funded; for over-25s you contribute 25%.
Funding rules are set by the Department for Education and change each August; we confirm what applies to your business on the first call. Figures reflect the apprenticeship funding rules for August 2026 to July 2027.
It's more than posting a vacancy. It's finding the right person.
We start with the job you need doing, not a candidate database. Our employer team writes the advert with you, promotes it, screens every applicant and sends you a shortlist worth interviewing. Once you've chosen, we handle onboarding and the training that follows.

Questions employers ask us.
Apprenticeships aren't one-size-fits-all. Here are the questions employers ask us first.
Can Solveway help us recruit a new apprentice?
Yes. Our employer team can help you define the role, advertise the opportunity, screen applicants and prepare a shortlist. We also support the apprenticeship training and onboarding process.
How long does it take to recruit an apprentice?
On average 6 to 8 weeks from brief to start date, and quicker when the employer responds promptly at each stage. We'll give you a realistic timeline on the first call.
How does apprenticeship funding work?
Most of the training cost is paid by government. Apprentices aged 16 to 24 are fully funded for non-levy employers; for older apprentices non-levy employers contribute 5%; levy-paying employers use their levy. We work with you to confirm exactly what applies to your business before you commit to anything.
What happens after we send an enquiry?
A member of our employer team calls you within one working day to discuss the role, suitable programmes and next steps. An enquiry doesn't commit you to anything.
What if we don't know which apprenticeship is right?
That's fine. Tell us what skills or roles you need. We'll talk through the options and whether an apprenticeship is the right route.
Let's find the apprentice your business needs.
