Want to Know Why Our Largest Employers Choose GoSprout to Power Their Registered Apprenticeships?

Intuitive

Companies that have tried other external or internal solutions fall in love with how user-friendly the GoSprout interface is for administrators.

And with what we hear is the best apprentice app in the industry, enrollees love the experience, too.

Affordable

Whether switching from other tools or moving away from having to manage an internal software product, GoSprout makes apprenticeship management more affordable on software fees and creates even more savings via significantly reduced administrative time.

Robust

With deep reporting updated automatically, forward-thinking companies can better understand the day to day metrics of enrolled apprentices while also having visibility into anticipated graduation and how they are tracking against their future workforce needs.

Extensible

With a growing list of integrations to Learning & Development tools and other common enterprise software, GoSprout fits seamlessly into enterprise firm workflows and HR departments.

The Problem

The administrative complexity of Registered Apprenticeship Programs prevents many organizations from launching additional tracks and focusing on talent development as much as they would like.

Excel and email-based administration is unnecessarily cumbersome including keeping paperwork up-to-date and filings on-time.

Add Headcount?

Hiring or Assigning Apprenticeship Admin Work to Existing Employees Is Really Expensive

If your team is frustrated due to lack of clarity and no system to follow, don’t put even more cooks in the kitchen.

Rely on a Sponsor?

The Level of Complexity Is Just as High for 3rd Parties but With Less Visibility & Ability to Communicate

If your internal team can’t keep up with compliance, don’t expect an external team to provide the structure you need.

The Solution

GoSprout is the single easiest and most cost-effective way to develop a Registered Apprenticeship Program: become or find a vetted sponsor, set up and track the enrollee work, make the appropriate filings, graduate apprentices and win all the economic benefits.

With modules for every stakeholder of a successful apprenticeship program in a single cloud solution, it’s never been easier to earn the benefits you deserve.
