Voluntary sector apprenticeships framework developed.

Skills - Third Sector, in collaboration with practitioners and employers, has developed new apprenticeship frameworks (descriptions of what an apprentice should learn while training) specifically for key roles in charities, social enterprises, community and voluntary organisations and other not for profit organisations. Apprenticeships offer a wide range of benefits for employers. There are new apprenticeships frameworks in:

• Fundraising
• Campaigning
• Volunteer Management

These frameworks are expected to be available for apprentices later this year.
