The availability of software solutions to efficiently manage and supervise the progression of students is making apprenticeship schemes a much more attractive opportunity for businesses according to Perspective, a leading authority on learner management and training.

London, UK January 27, 2010 -- The availability of software solutions to efficiently manage and supervise the progression of students is making apprenticeship schemes a much more attractive opportunity for businesses according to Perspective, a leading authority on learner management and training.

The use of training monitoring software can significantly enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of apprenticeship schemes. Businesses can now ensure that they are achieving the maximum output possible from their schemes, providing improved support for both their pupils and the mentors involved in the training process.

The employment of an apprenticeship scheme is a great way for companies to develop their own, almost tailor made, employee base. Through apprentice training, a business can grow their students to possess all of the core knowledge and work ethic necessary to become invaluable assets as employees. As such, apprenticeships have become an[ increasingly attractive opportunity for businesses looking to reap the benefits of receiving a purpose built workforce that is immediately ready to add to the firm's productivity. Companies can also receive significant incentives from government initiatives designed to encourage the employment of apprentices, in an effort to solve the UK's problems of skills shortages.

In addition, by reducing the administration demands on a business caused by an apprenticeship scheme, software such as Perspective's Sunesis product enables smaller firms who did not previously have the capacity to deal with a scheme to add the apprenticeship process to their recruitment strategy.

Paul Davis, Managing Director of Perspective, said: "The employment of an apprenticeship scheme is a great way for companies to develop their own, almost tailor made, employee base. Through apprentice training, a business can grow their students to possess all of the core knowledge and work ethic necessary to become invaluable assets as employees."

Sunesis provides those businesses running apprenticeship schemes with a comprehensive means of closely monitoring the progress and development of their students. The software enables mentors to view a range of information and use features to set milestones, create training reports and review progress and work development.
