Following the launch of the first foundation apprenticeships in England, the Department for Education is asking training providers about their plans for the programmes’ delivery.
FE colleges and other existing apprenticeship training organisations are being invited to fill out a brief survey so the government has a better idea of their intentions for roll-out and can respond proactively.

Providers have until Wednesday October 1st, 2025, to complete the survey.
