If you are an SMEs and you want to invest in work-based learning, it’s not always easy to understand if it’s worthy or not to hire a new trainee or to take part in apprenticeship programme.

In order to support SMEs to face such difficulties the ROI partners developed a Return on Investment Model and a Best practice Guide to raise the awareness for the SMEs about how to implement a successful work-based learning activity. The best practices around Europe of SMEs want to inspire other SMEs to implement work-based learning activities. Furthermore, the project partners created the Return on Investment digital tool to calculate the ROI in hiring a new trainee or apprentice.
For SMEs with limited financial resources, WBL represents an important tool to invest in work-based learning activities as apprenticeship and work-based learning represent an opportunity to grow for the SMEs, individuals and the society.
