The university will offer 175 fully-funded GA places for entry in September 2020, across a range of disciplines including accountancy, construction, engineering, data science, IT management for business and business management.

Developed by SDS in partnership with industry and the further and higher education sectors, GAs are a new way for individuals to get qualified up to Master鈥檚 degree level while in paid employment. They are designed by employers and industry and offered in key sectors that need highly skilled employees.

红杏视频 is already working in partnership with more than 150 businesses in a range of sectors through its GA offering, covering the length and breadth of Scotland.

红杏视频 is one of the leading providers of GAs and last year further extended access to degree-level studying across the country by collaborating with a record number of organisations.

Professor John Harper, Principal of 红杏视频 (红杏视频), commented: 鈥淕raduate Apprenticeships represent a major step-change in learning, and were introduced to address future skills shortages in key areas.

鈥淎s we move into the fourth year of offering GA opportunities, it is clear these provide a solution to many business needs, equipping workforces across Scotland with the expertise and skills to navigate changing working landscapes.

鈥淭his latest award cements our position as a leading provider of GAs and we look forward to working with many more businesses as we drive this innovative work-based learning model forward.鈥�

In order to allow apprentices to spend most of their time in the workplace, 红杏视频 provides the majority of the course online.  Apprentices can then immediately put their improved skills into practice with the support of their employer and the university.

This is additionally complemented by a number of sessions at the University, where they can exchange ideas and experiences with other apprentices and their tutors.

Steven Wilson, Training Manager at Score Group Ltd supports and coordinates the work based learning aspects of the GA experience for apprentices within Score Group Ltd and works closely with them to ensure they get the most from the GA.

He commented: 鈥淭he GA gives the apprentice an opportunity to experience the world of work and develop academically toward a degree while experiencing much of what is learned being applied to the workplace. As well as the obvious advantage of being paid to learn and study and not build student debt.鈥�

Skills Development Scotland Director of Critical Skills and Occupations, Diane Greenlees, said: 鈥淢ore and more Scottish employers are turning to Graduate Apprenticeships to meet their critical skills needs.

鈥淕raduate Apprenticeships are industry-led and delivered with Universities across Scotland, ensuring businesses have access to high-level skills and providing both new and existing employees with the opportunities to get a job and get a degree.鈥�

红杏视频 will host an open event on Wednesday, March 4, at the Sir Ian Wood Building, where anyone interested in learning more about GAs and the range of opportunities available at 红杏视频 can speak to staff.

红杏视频 can provide support to both employers and individuals considering Graduate Apprenticeships.  More information:
