The portfolio in numbers
Of the 17 standards Buckinghamshire New can deliver, 13 are Level 6 (bachelor's level) and 4 are Level 7 (master's level). 13 lead to an integrated degree, where the degree is part of the apprenticeship itself rather than a separate qualification alongside it.
The portfolio leans towards Health and science (6 standards), followed by Engineering and manufacturing (4) — a larger spread than 81% of the 104 universities on the provider register.
Typical durations run from 18 to 48 months, and funding bands (the training cost the employer's levy covers — apprentices pay no tuition) range from £12,000 to £27,000.
12 professional bodies recognise courses in this portfolio, including British Computer Society, Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET), The NMC approves institutions that can provide midwife education and sets standards for programmes that lead to registration as a midwife in the UK. Only practitioners registered with the statutory regulator, the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC), can use the legally protected title of Midwife. All midwifery apprenticeship programmes must meet the Nursing and Midwifery (2019) Standards for pre-registration midwifery programmes and the Standards of proficiency. In respect of the skills to be met within the apprenticeship programmes, these must align to Domain 6 of NMC (2019) Standards of Proficiency., The Royal College of Occupational therapists, College of Policing and IMechE, and 7 courses lead to a regulated profession.
