University of Essex is registered on the government's apprenticeship provider register to deliver 7 of the 172 approved Level 6 and 7 apprenticeship standards (4% of the degree-level catalogue), spanning Business and administration and Health and science.

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 7 standards Essex can deliver, 5 are Level 6 (bachelor's level) and 2 are Level 7 (master's level). 5 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 Business and administration (1) — a larger spread than 44% of the 104 universities on the provider register.

Typical durations run from 12 to 48 months, and funding bands (the training cost the employer's levy covers — apprentices pay no tuition) range from £9,000 to £26,000.

7 professional bodies recognise courses in this portfolio, including The Royal College of Occupational therapists, The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy, The British Psychological Society for Associate, Nursing and Midwifery Council / Minimum Level 6, Chartered Management Institute and The Institute of Leadership, and 4 courses lead to a regulated profession.
