This consultation was published on 13 March 2018.</p><p> </p><p>In addition, the government is supporting the development of training schemes through the apprenticeship levy. The levy, which was launched on 6 April 2017, will fund a step change in apprenticeship numbers and quality. The levy helps to reverse the trend of underinvestment in training by employers and put control of funding for apprenticeships in employers’ hands. Employers have already developed new apprenticeship standards in aviation, which include Airside Ground Specialist and Aviation Operations Manager. The Commercial Airline Pilot standard is currently in development.</p> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride question first answered 14/03/2018 14:51:21 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride
