Do I need an employer?

Yep! For a Degree Apprenticeship, you will need an employer who is willing to support you through your programme. Your employer can email our team to begin the process or answer any questions they may have at apprenticeships@bolton.ac.uk

What is a Degree Apprenticeship?

A Degree Apprenticeship enables you to gain a full undergraduate or master’s degree and earn while you learn. You will spend most of the time working and part-time at university studying for your degree.

What do I need to be eligible for an Apprenticeship?

You will need a Grade 4 or above in GCSE English and Maths. For certain courses, you may need additional qualifications or certificates. If this is the case, we’ll let you know before enrolling on the course.

Frequently Asked Questions

Degree Apprenticeships combine working with part-time study. Apprentices are employed throughout the programme and spend part of their time at university and the rest with their Employer.

Apprenticeships can last from 2 to 5 years depending on the level of the Apprenticeship.

It allows you to earn as you learn, all while taking on no personal debt for school fees. Your education is paid for by ESFA, your employer, the university and/or the Levy.

You will earn at least the National Minimum Wage rate.

A crucial part of any apprenticeship entails allocating ample time for the learning of new knowledge, skills and behaviours. Currently, this is no less than 6 hours per week throughout the apprenticeship programme’s duration. However, higher-level apprenticeships are very intense and require a large amount of study so may take more.

Your Off The Job (OTJ) training might include face-to-face delivery (e.g. lectures/ training sessions), role-playing/simulation exercises, distance/online learning, 1:1 coaching, shadowing and mentoring, industry visits/manufacturer training, participation in competitions, assignments and projects or supported study days.

Yes, the End Point Assessment (EPA) is the final stage of an Apprenticeship. It is an impartial assessment of whether or not you have developed the skills, knowledge and behaviours outlined in the apprenticeship standard.

You should always talk to your programme leader, tutors or employer first. However, Bolton Students’ Union has an independent Advice Unit based within the Students’ Union Office. The Advice Unit offers free, impartial and confidential advice to all University of Bolton students on academic issues, money concerns, problems with accommodation and more. To arrange a chat, email info@boltonsu.com.

Yes, existing staff with job roles that match the target Apprenticeship standard can undertake an Apprenticeship programme. If you would like more information on how to talk to your employer about this, contact our team at apprentices@bolton.ac.uk.

What is a Degree Apprenticeship?

A Degree Apprenticeship provides your team members with the chance to upskill while working. At the University of Bolton you can invest in your employees with level 5, 6, and 7 degrees.

How does it help my business?

Learners can achieve their academic dreams and as an employer you get higher-skilled employees who bring their learning back into your business at little-to-no cost to you.

Who pays for it?

If you have an annual pay bill of over £3 million per annum, you will be a levy payer, which is used to fund Apprentice training. Smaller non-levy paying companies will pay 5% of apprenticeship costs, with the Government contributing the other 95%.

Frequently Asked Questions

An Apprenticeship allows your employees to expand their skills with university study while still working full-time within your business. Learners then get designated time to attend university to gain off-the-job training. This will allow them to complete the requirements of their Apprenticeship, along with reviews and assessments.

This is flexible, depending on the course. It can be a one-day-per-week release or block delivery.

Yes, existing staff with job roles that match the target Apprenticeship standard can undertake an Apprenticeship programme. You simply need to sign up for the Apprenticeship programme with us and we will check the eligibility requirements. If you would like more information on this, contact our team at apprentices@bolton.ac.uk.

Apprenticeships can last from 2 to 5 years depending on the level of the Apprenticeship.

Learners need to be 16+ to be on an Apprenticeship. There are other requirements under the Government Funding Rules but we can help you with those, simply email us at apprenticeships@bolton.ac.uk.

You need to pay at least the National Minimum Wage rate for the Apprentice’s age.

We offer Higher and Degree Apprenticeships at the University, which vary from level 5 to Level 7 (Master’s Degree).

Training for the Apprenticeship programme falls under either the Levy or Co-Investment funding scheme. Not sure what that is? Email us at apprenticeships@bolton.ac.uk.

There are more benefits than we could list! However, these are the most compelling:

  • Increasing team skills relevant to your industry
  • A motivated and loyal team member, grateful for their Apprenticeship
  • Incentive to retain staff and recruit new team members
  • Competitive advantage with staff at the cutting-edge
