This apprenticeship handbook template is a ready-made Google Docs document for employers who recruit paid apprentices and need to explain the route clearly. It covers what the programme is, the training stages, pay and conditions, progression measures and how to apply, across seven designed pages.

Each page carries sample figures for Kettleby Foods, a fictional food manufacturer, including a £19,800 starting salary and a 92% completion rate. Replace the pay, dates and roles with your own, and check the entry rules with your recruiters. The apply page should show the real closing date, since applicants plan around it.
