It’s a full-time, paid job with a structured development and education programme. A degree apprenticeship offers a mixture of on- and off-the-job training that gives you the skills needed to get ahead in your chosen career and results in a full degree-level qualification.
What does a degree apprenticeship offer?
Did you know that apprenticeships aren’t just for new hires? If you’re currently in work, now’s the time to talk to your employer to see what they offer. We’d recommend starting with your line manager and perhaps also talking to HR.
If you’re not in work, or are interested in an apprenticeship within a different organisation, visit https://www.apprenticeships.gov.uk/apprentice/what-is-an-apprenticeship. There are up to 28,000 apprenticeship vacancies on the site at any one time.
