Our degree apprenticeships are helping grow the economy. 🚀 Our recent “Force for Impact” report found that: 🔹 61% of SMEs use degree apprenticeships to support their talent pipeline. 🔹 91% of employers agreed that degree apprenticeships addressed technical and professional skills gaps. Scott Young, CEO at RedEye, shared with us the impact that Degree Apprenticeships have had on the company. He said: “We were experiencing the same digital skills shortage faced by employers across the country. Degree apprenticeships ticked a lot of boxes for us. They enabled us to keep work in-house, to grow our own talent, and to diversify our workforce. Smaller businesses like ours don’t have the luxury of dedicated early years support or big HR departments, but that shouldn’t be a barrier. The benefits our apprentices bring far outweigh the initial legwork required to onboard them.” Download our full Force for Impact report to hear first-hand from other employers and apprentices, and to find out more about the transformational impact of degree apprenticeships: mmu.ac.uk/forceforimpact
