Apprenticeships
Working at the University has opened my mind up to the many career choices and paths that I could take and it is a great place to inspire you to think about your future
Amber Bassett, Apprentice Academic Support Administrator
To have the opportunity to earn whilst I learn, whilst working in a job I love is all I could really ask for. Apprenticeships are a great way to show that “you can do it.”
Badar Afzal, CBP Support Assistant Apprentice
Being an apprentice is really great, I quickly felt very much part of the team and have close bonds with my colleagues. We all support each other in every way and offer help if a member of the team needs a helping hand
Maddy Geen, Executive Support Apprentice
Apprenticeships are a great way to gain knowledge and skills
Jordanna Broom, Engineering Apprentice
My days are so productive and rewarding and the learning just seems to happen naturally without me realising. I also get to go to college a day a week, which is great
Emily Williams, HR Administrator Apprentice
Whether you are a school leaver, college leaver or are looking for a change in career, our apprentices are employed by the University, with an accompanying skills development programme.
We have a wide range of apprenticeship opportunities from level 3 diplomas to masters degrees. Through your apprenticeship, you will gain the technical knowledge, practical work-based experience and wider skills you need for your immediate job and your future career.
You will develop through a mix of learning in the workplace (on-the-job training), guided learning through one of our training providers (off-the-job training), and will be supported by your line manager and mentors putting your new knowledge and skills into practice.
We deliver a number of degree apprenticeships at the University for existing staff and other employers.
