The apprenticeship service is a government online service which will allow you to set up and manage your apprenticeships.
All apprenticeships in England must be managed through the apprenticeship service and you will need to set up an account in order to use the service.

By creating an apprenticeship service account, you'll be able to:
- access and manage apprenticeship funding
- set up and approve apprentices
- advertise roles on the 'Find an apprenticeship' service
- approve training costs
- check payments to training providers
- give training providers permission to carry out some tasks on your behalf
- give feedback on apprenticeship training
