Degree Apprenticeships

Degree apprenticeships offer the opportunity to combine full-time work with studying for a bachelors or master’s degree qualification. Apprentices are employed throughout the programme, and will spend part of their time at the University of Exeter and the rest with their employer.

In April 2017 the government introduced the apprenticeship levy which meant that all employers with a pay bill over £3 million annually must contribute to this scheme, therefore all training costs for degree apprenticeships are jointly funded by the government and the employer.

Our degree apprenticeships have been developed to enable you to gain practical skills, in-depth business knowledge and a University level qualification from a prestigious Russell Group University, all within a flexible blended learning format.
