Useful information
Haddon Training offers a FREE recruitment service and there’s no finder’s fee for placing an apprentice. We advertise on different platforms and can reach up to 300,000 eager people looking for apprenticeships. We carefully match our applicants to your requirements and pre-screen them to check they are eligible and suit the specifications of the job role.
A member of our team will work with you to ascertain what kind of individual you are looking for and how they will fit in to your business. They will also discuss with you the expectations and requirements that all our employers will need to commit to. Once everything is confirmed, we will then advertise the apprenticeship vacancy for you free of charge on our advertising channels.
Applicants will then apply and our expert team will call each one to assess their suitability. If we feel they have the appropriate experience for the position, we’ll then give the candidate your details to arrange an interview.
Once you have chosen your apprentice, we will organise an enrolment with one of our qualified Trainer Coaches, who will come out to your business and explain the qualification in detail, agreeing objectives and timelines, before signing the learner up to the relevant programme.
We are committed to providing a secure environment for all learners and staff.

All employers are required to comply with certain regulatory and quality standards. When you wish to take on an apprentice with us, we provide a checklist that identifies the mandatory and advisory standards that employers are required to meet.

Haddon Training take these standards seriously and will take steps to satisfy ourselves that you meet these requirements before agreeing to a learner. For further information, please visit www.hse.gov.uk.
The mental health and well-being of our learners is paramount, and we encourage them to always talk to you, their parents or Trainer Coach if they are struggling. No-one should ever have to feel alone.
