Lancaster University

Lancaster University is a public research-intensive university that delivers a wide portfolio of higher education and professional development opportunities in the UK and internationally. From its main campus near the city of Lancaster, the University offers undergraduate and postgraduate degree programmes across four faculties, together with online and blended learning through Lancaster University Online, including online postgraduate study, professional development, and free and short courses. For employers and working professionals, Lancaster provides executive and management education, sector-specific programmes and research-informed training via its Management School and other faculties, alongside a range of CPD options. Apprenticeship learners study alongside their employment, for example on the Senior Leader Apprentice Programme delivered part time by the Executive Education Development Team in Lancaster University Management School. Dedicated student support services, including the Disability and Inclusive Practice Service, work with apprenticeship and other students and their employers to put in place reasonable adjustments and support plans to enable effective learning alongside work commitments. The University’s careers and employability services, business and innovation activities, and global partner network further connect learning with workplace needs, making Lancaster a suitable partner for organisations seeking to develop staff through accredited higher education, online learning, and selected apprenticeship routes.
