We are pioneers in working with employers to develop flexible and innovative higher technical provision in key growth areas. Our universities offer apprenticeships across a range of sectors, including teaching, biomedical science, health care, social work, computing, construction and the built environment – all areas where skills are needed to tackle the major challenges we face in the UK and across the globe.

We want to ensure that people look beyond the traditional apprenticeship models to the huge range of higher and degree apprenticeships offered by Alliance Universities.

Our members’ students no longer have to choose between “academic” and “vocational” courses. Through degree apprenticeships, they can gain both a degree and on-the-job experience, as well as earning while they learn. For many, this opportunity has been life-changing.
