Employer Apprenticeships
Employer Apprenticeships
At Buckinghamshire New University, we are dedicated to equipping our graduates with the skills employers demand. We will work with you using our practice-based learning expertise to support your training needs.
Higher and degree apprenticeships are a partnership between industry and higher education institutions set up to help meet the needs of employers. They also provide a flexible way for employees to take advantage of the life-changing opportunities that higher education can offer them.
At BNU, we change lives through employment-focused teaching which enables our students to achieve their ambitions. As a small and personal university, we offer an agile approach to all apprenticeship training needs.
To find out more please contact the Apprenticeship Hub at apprenticeships@bucks.ac.uk or call 01296 744202, or take a look at a full list of Buckinghamshire New University apprenticeship programmes.
Apprenticeship Levy
The apprenticeship levy will be paid by employers in any sector with a pay bill of more than £3 million per year. Those employers will be able to use their apprenticeship levy funds to access degree apprenticeships from higher education providers.
Location
Through our four main campus locations we can offer a service right across Thames Valley and most recently our campus in Aylesbury.
End Point Assessment
An end-point-assessment (EPA) is required for every apprenticeship under the new Apprenticeship Standards Structure. Unlike a traditional academic degree with work-based content, a higher degree apprenticeship includes a period of learning in the workplace for apprentices after academic attendance has finished.
