Our guide explains how degree apprenticeships work and how to apply.

Earn while you learn

Higher and degree apprenticeships offer an exciting route into an advanced level of learning. You’ll earn a CertHE or full degree, fully supported by ARU and your employer.

Focussing on the skill areas employers want and need, you’ll gain valuable work experience and apply learning in the workplace.

You’ll earn a competitive salary, and for Level 4-6 apprenticeships, your tuition fees will be covered by your employer and the Government.

Level 7 apprenticeships, leading to a Masters degree, are still available but under a new employer self-funded model.
