Higher and Degree Apprenticeships

Our higher and degree apprenticeship programmes

Designed by employers for employers, our apprentices combine work with part-time university study and develop through on the job learning with work-based projects relevant to your organisation.

Higher and degree apprenticeships are for existing employees over the age of 18 who want to get ahead in the workplace and gain a nationally recognised qualification. If you would like to use the apprenticeship programmes to hire staff then the university can help to assess the suitability of the candidate.
