Higher and degree apprenticeships



We're home to the National Centre of Excellence for Degree Apprenticeships, a partner of the South Yorkshire Institute of Technology (SYIoT), and are the UK's second largest higher education provider of higher and degree apprenticeships.

We received the Educate North 2024 Apprenticeship Award in recognition of the work of our apprenticeship experts. We also won the Training Provider / Programme of the Year at South Yorkshire Apprenticeship Awards 2024.

Our courses were rated 'Good' by Ofsted in 2022, and our teaching and career support was rated Gold by the Teaching Excellence Framework in 2023.

Whether you are interested in becoming an apprentice or an employer wanting to offer an apprenticeship, we have the knowledge and expertise to help support you through the process.
