We know what you’re thinking: "what is a degree apprenticeship?" Often you will not find these two words in the same sentence, but with the University of Bolton, they create the best of both worlds: learning and earning at the same time.The best part? You won't be burdened with tuition fees; your employer or government funding will cover those costs.
To apply for an apprenticeship course with The University of Bolton, securing a job with an employer willing to support you through a degree apprenticeship is the first crucial step. Your job role should be closely aligned with the apprenticeship you wish to pursue.
For example, if you are applying for a Mental Health Degree Apprenticeship then you will already be working in the Mental Health sector in the NHS or private practice, and be seeking to gain a degree and become a registered nurse.
If you haven’t secured a job yet, then there are various ways in which you can look at securing an apprenticeship position:
- Find an Apprenticeship – government website advertising current apprenticeship vacancies
- Job Search Sites
- Company Websites
- Social Network- LinkedIn, Facebook, X. regularly follow company pages and look out for recruitment advertisements
- Careers/Job Fairs
- Word of Mouth/Recommendations
The University of Bolton offers a diverse range of Degree Apprenticeships. For detailed information about these, please visit the Apprenticeships page on our website.
Many employers will offer a permanent position once you have completed the apprenticeship to keep their investment in the company, so you’ll either complete your apprenticeship with a permanent job offer or have all the tools needed to secure employment elsewhere.
