How do you use the Digital Apprenticeship Service to Recruit apprentices?

Employers can use DAS to advertise apprenticeship vacancies nationally and connect with approved training providers like South Hampshire College Group. This helps them reach a wide pool of potential candidates while being confident that the role is linked to a recognised apprenticeship standard.

From an employer perspective, DAS can be used to: -

• Create and publish apprenticeship vacancies 
• Highlight key role details (duties, hours, salary, entry requirements) -
• Make the vacancy visible to prospective apprentices searching online
• Shortlist and manage applicants in one place

From a training provider perspective, we use DAS to: -

• Help employers shape suitable apprenticeship roles that align with standards
• Advise on realistic entry requirements and progression routes
•  Support the drafting of clear, attractive vacancy adverts
•  Ensure the selected apprenticeship standard, funding route and start dates all join up with the recruitment plan

Used well, DAS becomes part of a joined‑up recruitment process: employers attract the right candidates, and we work alongside them to make sure the vacancy, training programme and funding are all correctly set up from the start.
