University of Roehampton

The University of Roehampton, London delivers higher and degree apprenticeships designed to combine academic study with work-based learning for new and existing employees. Its apprenticeship provision includes programmes such as Nursing Associate (Level 5), Teacher Apprenticeship (Level 6), Teacher Degree Apprenticeship (Level 6 with QTS), and newly launched degree apprenticeships in civil engineering and construction, delivered through the Sustainable Engineering and Technology Education Centre (SETEC). These apprenticeships typically blend on‑campus teaching with substantial time in the workplace, with apprentices often attending university one day per week or in blocks while being employed for at least 30 hours per week. Roehampton positions apprenticeships for school leavers, existing employees and mature learners, and offers tailored higher and degree apprenticeships aligned to industry needs. For employers, Roehampton provides support across the full apprenticeship cycle – from initial consultation and programme design, through recruitment support, to ongoing progress reviews – and advises on apprenticeship levy use and government co‑funding. Programmes are delivered by specialist academic teams using facilities such as clinical simulation centres and education-focused teaching spaces, with the aim of equipping apprentices with up‑to‑date, sector-relevant skills and qualifications.
