What Is Apprenticeship and Traineeship Employment Through a GTO?
Apprenticeship and Traineeship Employment through a Group Training Organisation means the GTO is the legal employer of the apprentice or trainee. In this instance, Community Solutions manages employment, payroll and compliance, while your business hosts the apprentice or trainee and provides on-the-job training.
Do I Get to Choose My Apprentice or Trainee?
Yes. We provide a shortlist of pre-screened apprentices and trainees based on your business needs. You make the final decision on who you host.
What Responsibilities Do I Have as a Host Employer?
As a host employer, you provide day-to-day supervision, meaningful work and on-the-job training. Community Solutions manages employment contracts, payroll, compliance and ongoing support.
Can I Host a Trainee as Well as an Apprentice?
Yes. Community Solutions supports both traineeships and apprenticeships across a wide range of industries. We can help you identify which option best suits your business needs and workforce goals.
What Is the Difference Between GTO Employment and Apprenticeship Management?
With GTO employment, Community Solutions is the legal employer, and you host the apprentice or trainee. With Apprenticeship and Traineeship Management, you employ the apprentice or trainee directly and receive support with compliance and training coordination. We offer both options and can help you choose the right model.
