Apprenticeships

Apprenticeships are an effective way for businesses to develop a motivated, skilled and qualified workforce, either by upskilling existing employees or recruiting new talent. For the learner, studying an apprenticeship is an exciting way to gain a recognised qualification whilst earning a salary and gaining relevant industry experience.

At Herts, we're passionate about providing apprenticeships as an alternative route to traditional education, with over 20 higher and degree apprenticeship programmes available. Our team of experts work with employers across a wide variety of sectors, such as TUI, NHS and MBDA to create apprenticeship programmes that truly drive value to both the employer and the learner.

Why work with Herts?

Collaborative approach to programme creation
At Herts, the delivery of an apprenticeship programme is a three-way collaboration between the University, the employer and the learner. We offer flexible modes of study to help our students to succeed and allow them to engage with a greater range of opportunities in work and education.
We also consult with stakeholders across the public and private sector to ensure our apprenticeship programmes fill skills gaps, are tailored to specific industries and address the needs of businesses.
Dedicated support and guidance
Rest assured that you and your business will be supported and listened to through every step of the apprenticeship process. Our team of experienced apprenticeship experts will work closely with you to assess your business needs, advise on compliance and eligibility, and ensure you are truly getting the most from your investment.
Once your learners begin their course, you will be assigned a dedicated Account Manager who will provide full support throughout the duration of the apprenticeship, ensuring a seamless experience.
Award-winning teaching and learning
We will welcome your learners into our Herts student community with award-winning teaching, direct support from University tutors and full access to excellent learning facilities.
All of our apprenticeship programmes are led by experts, with programmes continually influenced and improved upon by ongoing research taking place at the University.
