Open University is registered on the government's apprenticeship provider register to deliver 6 of the 172 approved Level 6 and 7 apprenticeship standards (3% of the degree-level catalogue), spanning Business and administration, Care services, Digital, Health and science and Protective services.

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 6 standards Open can deliver, 5 are Level 6 (bachelor's level) and 1 is Level 7 (master's level). 4 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 Business and administration (2 standards), followed by Care services (1) — a larger spread than 37% of the 104 universities on the provider register.

Typical durations run from 24 to 48 months, and funding bands (the training cost the employer's levy covers — apprentices pay no tuition) range from £14,000 to £27,000.

6 professional bodies recognise courses in this portfolio, including British Computer Society, College of Policing, Nursing and Midwifery Council / Minimum Level 6, Chartered Management Institute, The Institute of Leadership and Social Work England, and 3 courses lead to a regulated profession.
