Degree apprenticeships: an SME perspective

Solutions

We don’t just generate ideas, but also solutions.

Our approach and strategic, cross-sector network linking universities, business and government is unlike any other. We bring our members together to leverage the skills and talent fostered by our universities and to strengthen further the UK’s world-class research and development.

Higher and degree apprenticeships offer the best of both world’s combining university study and employment. Northumbria University is a leading degree apprenticeship training provider and was one of the first UK universities to offer government-supported degree apprenticeships.

Northumbria University has worked with Elliott Associates – Chartered Quantity Surveyors and Cost Consultants – for over 15 years. Managing Partner at Elliott Associates, David Pearson, discusses why the business is a firm advocate of degree apprenticeships, and why apprentices are such a positive addition to the team.
