5. Motivations for Participation A key aim of the survey was to investigate why employers participate in MAs and how they become aware of the opportunities. 4 How Employers Became Aware of MAs The most common method by which employers first became aware of MAs (Figure 5.1) was through being approached by a training provider (as opposed to going through a training provider that they approached proactively), with 40 per cent of employers who have offered MAs for up to 5 years reporting this.

Other reasons included to qualify staff to meet a legislative standard (80 per cent of employers) and to improve their ability to retain staff (73 per cent). 4 A separate analysis of non‐participating employers is provided in Annex D 12 MA Employer Survey 2012 FINAL
