A world-class degree without the debt
Information for apprentices
Degree apprenticeships offer you the chance to combine a job with a programme of academic study that awards a bachelor's or master's-level qualification. And all whilst earning a salary.
As an apprentice, you'll undertake on and off-the-job learning to develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours relevant to your job.
If you're employed in a relevant job role and interested in undertaking a degree apprenticeship, speak to your employer in the first instance. If you're not employed, you can apply for a job that's advertised as a degree apprenticeship, or join our mailing list to be notified of vacancies with our partner employers.
Our degree apprenticeship programmes
Basic eligibility requirements
Eligibility will be assessed at the point of application in line with the Government's Apprenticeship Funding Rules. The rules include but are not limited to the following criteria.
All apprentices must:
- be working in a job role that provides opportunities to apply and develop the knowledge, skills and behaviours from the programme, outlined in the relevant Apprenticeship Standard.
- spend at least 50% of their working hours in England over the duration of the apprenticeship. This also applies to remote and hybrid workers.
- have access to the off-the-job training detailed in their individual learning plan.
- have a valid and eligible residency status and the right to work in England.
There will be additional academic entry requirements specific to each programme.
