Helping you learn new skills and develop existing ones
The University of Sheffield is committed to working with businesses to offer the highest quality apprenticeships, boosting productivity and growth across the city, wider region and the UK. Apprenticeships enable you to attract employees of the future and equip them with the skills you need for your organisation.
We provide the apprentice with the academic training, support and expertise required for their chosen career.
Our apprenticeship programmes are designed in partnership with employers, so that your apprentices develop the skills and expertise they need to succeed in your industry.
With the introduction of the apprenticeship Levy, now is the time to maximise the use of your levy payments to invest in your apprentices. We offer value for money and the highest quality teaching and learning as a world top 100 Russell Group university.
