There are no costs involved to the apprentice. As apprentices, you are employees within your organisation, with free training available to you to develop your knowledge, skills and behaviours.
You will get paid at least an apprenticeship wage. You can find out more about the minimum rates by clicking here. The Apprenticeship minimum wage relates to apprentices aged 16 to 18 or aged 19 and above in the first year of their Apprenticeship.
Each apprenticeship is different so they vary in length. Our Accounting Apprenticeships we offer vary from around 13 – 24 months.
For example: a level 2 apprenticeship can usually take up to 13 months whereas a level 4 accounting apprenticeship could take 24 months.
This duration also depends on your attitude, approach and commitment to progress.

Client success stories
Hear from our learners and partners about their experience, achievements and success with FAR Training.
Far training is a brilliant training provider. Lucy is an amazing tutor who is very supportive and is passionate about what she does.
I originally used FAR Training to complete my AAT Level 2 exams, and I had a great experience. Lucy then supported me in finding a Level 3 apprenticeship, and I’m now progressing through my Level 4 with FAR Training as well. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an apprenticeship or a training provider.
