University of Reading 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, Digital and Education and early years.
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 Reading can deliver, 4 are Level 6 (bachelor's level) and 2 are Level 7 (master's level). 2 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 (3 standards), followed by Digital (2) — a larger spread than 37% of the 104 universities on the provider register.
Typical durations run from 9 to 48 months, and funding bands (the training cost the employer's levy covers — apprentices pay no tuition) range from £9,000 to £27,000.
4 professional bodies recognise courses in this portfolio, including British Computer Society, Chartered Management Institute, The Institute of Leadership and Department for Education, and 1 course leads to a regulated profession.
