Commitment Statement

What is a commitment statement?

An agreement between the apprentice, the employer and the training provider covering: the planned content and schedule for training; what is expected and offered by each party; and how to resolve queries and complaints. The commitment statement is an important document that helps to ensure that all parties are clear about their responsibilities and that the apprenticeship runs smoothly.

Why are commitment statements necessary?

This document provides a clear understanding of the roles and responsibilities of the various stakeholders, and it helps ensure that the apprentice receives the training and support they need to be successful. It can also help to reduce the risk of disputes or disagreements, and promotes a positive and productive working relationship between the apprentice, the employer, and the training provider.

How do commitment statements protect the parties?

The commitment statement ensures that the apprentice receives the training they need to be successful. It provides the employer with a framework for managing the apprenticeship. It provides both the apprentice and the employer with a legal recourse if the other breaches their agreement.
