In Aptem we have found a partner that provides expertise in the HE sector, has a flexible system to meet the specific demands of high-quality degree apprenticeships and can evolve in line with our future needs and aspirations. We believe it will deliver an improved experience for learners, employers and colleagues across our degree apprenticeship portfolio.
Katie Nykanen
Group Chief Technology Officer

The industry as a whole is constantly evolving, as evidenced by the significant changes to the funding rules in August 2022. Layer that with our curriculum demands, client requirements and growth ambitions. We needed a system that is agile and a team behind it that can react quickly.
Richard Bridge
Director of Learning Technology

At Lifetime we believe that everyone deserves to learn the skills they need to reach their full potential, and we want to make sure that our technology solutions support this vision for every learner. Having completed an in-depth review of the market, we know Aptem is a platform that will enhance our ability to provide an exceptional learning experience for our learners. We are excited to introduce Aptem to learners and employers in the coming months.
Carl Cornish
Chief Operations Officer

Aptem Enrol is user-friendly, flexible and allows for compliant remote-onboarding. We anticipate that it will save us administrative time and money and save on mileage and printing costs, meaning that all-important first meeting with the learner can be focused on teaching and learning.
Daniel Dowson
Director of Funding and MIS
Aptem was several miles ahead of everybody else. A good apprenticeships management system isn’t just about the administration. It’s about the user experience, both for the apprentice and for the employer. In Aptem, we found a tool that is truly adding value to the service that we’re delivering.
Terry Hodgetts
Director of Corporate Client Solutions

Aptem Employ is an intuitive and highly user-friendly product, that can support our amazing team and delivery partners. We wanted a system that we could get up and running quickly, and easily customise to our requirements. This has been a very positive start to our programme and partnership.
Chris Harrison
Executive Director - Employability and Health

Aptem allows us to onboard learners and complete compliance documents remotely and efficiently, which has been imperative in the current climate and reduced the time spent on admin. With Aptem’s distance learning functionality, we can continue to provide our clients with excellent training online.
Paul Wileman
CEO
We are absolutely thrilled to be working with Aptem as our online ePortfolio provider. All aspects of the organisation will have a clear view of our apprentices' journey with an enhanced enrolment process and streamlined procedures that span the whole apprenticeship. Our ongoing ambitions to grow our apprenticeship provision will be supported by this fantastic investment.
Lynsey Whitehead
Director of Business Engagement, Partnerships & Apprenticeships

Aptem has allowed us to merge our MIS and our learner portfolio systems into one place, so we can now truly go out and say we have an end-to-end system for our learners and employers. It has also given us our first foray into ePortfolios for our education learners, so that’s a huge step forward. We now have real-time reporting and real-time performance management of our staff.
Ryan Palmer
Director of Quality and Impact

We were particularly impressed by the enrolment functionality within Aptem, with its ease of use for both apprentices and trainers. From an SLT perspective, we will now be able to report from one platform on all areas of the apprenticeship provision, which will have a huge impact on our ability to scale and make data-driven decisions.
