<p>We have put employers at the heart of our apprenticeship system, empowering them
to design the standards they need to meet their emerging skills needs in a changing
economy. The independent Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education supports
employers to develop standards and acts as the guarantor of their quality. Apprenticeships
available in the sector include junior energy manager, smart home technician and power
engineer.</p><p>Employers in the energy industry in England can use their apprenticeship
levy funds to invest in these new high quality apprenticeship standards, unlocking
the productivity benefits associated with employing apprentices.</p><p>We are encouraged
to see companies in the energy sector engaging positively with the apprenticeship
system. E.ON, for example, has apprentices working throughout its business in areas
as diverse as cyber security, renewables, smart metering and customer service.</p>
