Apprenticeships
Higher and degree apprenticeships are jobs with industry-led educational programmes attached that lead to university qualifications.
An apprenticeship is a three-way partnership between an education provider (the University of Brighton), an employer, and an apprentice, who could be an existing employee or a new hire.
We offer a range of programmes at level 5, 6 and 7 apprenticeships, equivalent to foundation, bachelors and masters degrees respectively.
Support for SMEs
Non-levy paying businesses will need to co-invest 5% of the cost of their apprentice training. The government will pay the remaining 95%.
Small businesses (<50 employees) will receive 100% of the funding where the apprentice is 16-18 years old, or is between 19-24 and has a local authority education, health and care plan.
