APPRENTICESHIP PROGRAMMES
BUILT FOR CAREERS
UCEM offers the following apprenticeship degree programmes, delivered by supporting online learning. Development of the required knowledge, skills and behaviours for all apprenticeships happens through a combination of workplace training provided by the employer and off-the job training provided by UCEM. It’s important that the employer is able to provide their apprentices with relevant workplace experience in order for the requirements of the end point assessment to be met.
