What are degree apprenticeships? 

Apprenticeships are known to be a great path to get a career started from an entry level. But, with Degree Apprenticeships, learners can further develop their careers into Levels 6 and 7, equivalent to a full bachelor’s degree or even a master level. 

This also opens great opportunities for employers to specialize and develop a higher skilled workforce. 

Creative Degree Apprenticeships

There are now several creative and cultural industries degree level apprenticeships.  Creative Alliance are planning to develop and deliver four of these from September 2024.  

We think they provide progression opportunities for former apprentices looking to progress in their career. We also think they provide alternative routes to working in the sector. 

The four apprenticeships are

We would welcome 3 minutes of your time to help us establish the potential demand for these apprenticeships. 

These apprenticeships are for those already in entry level / coordinator roles and who are looking to develop their careers.  

In some instances, organisations may want to recruit a new entrant into one of these apprenticeship roles. 

We have tested our approach through a small pilot. Our first two Level 7 Creative Industries Production Manager apprenticeship recently achieved distinction. Both Menna and Rachel commented that the following elements of the training were helpful in their work role: 

a) Post-Production

b) Responsible Production

c) Copyright

d) Risk Assessment

And they both really valued the support they received from Creative Alliance.
