BSc degree apprenticeships
Revolutionising the way young people get started on a tech career
To help companies attract and retain tech specialists, leading employers and Higher Education Institutions (universities and collaborations of private training providers or colleges with universities) have worked with TechSkills to develop a range of digital degree apprenticeships.
Some HEIs’ digital degree apprenticeship programmes are accredited by employers as Tech Industry Gold, which confirms they meet industry standards for quality, content and delivery. TechSkills only promotes degree apprenticeship programmes which are accredited as Tech Industry Gold, or are in the process of acquiring this accreditation.
To join a programme, candidates need to satisfy the employer’s recruitment requirements as well as the associated university’s entry criteria. Once accepted, they are equipped with a range of skills and knowledge: technical skills, of course, but also the business and interpersonal skills that are equally valued by employers.
Why degree apprenticeships?
· On-the-job training – delivered and tailored to business need
· High-calibre candidates – find new graduate-level recruits / positions
· New knowledge – spread new academic and vocational knowledge among existing staff members
· Skills gap solution – fill employers’ higher-level tech skills gaps easily
