Cranfield University is registered on the government's apprenticeship provider register to deliver 23 of the 172 approved Level 6 and 7 apprenticeship standards (13% of the degree-level catalogue), spanning Business and administration, Digital, Engineering and manufacturing, Health and science, Legal, finance and accounting and Transport and logistics.
Registration means the university may deliver the standard — actual vacancies depend on employer partnerships each cycle. Check the university's apprenticeship pages for live programmes.
The portfolio in numbers
Of the 23 standards Cranfield can deliver, 8 are Level 6 (bachelor's level) and 15 are Level 7 (master's level). 11 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 Engineering and manufacturing (8 standards), followed by Business and administration (6) — a larger spread than 93% of the 104 universities on the provider register.
Typical durations run from 18 to 60 months, and funding bands (the training cost the employer's levy covers — apprentices pay no tuition) range from £11,000 to £27,000.
22 professional bodies recognise courses in this portfolio, including The Chartered Institute of Information Security, Institute of Cyber Digital Investigation Professionals, British Computer Society, Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining, Institution of Mechanical Engineers and Chartered Society of Designers.
