Degree apprenticeship
In 2015, the UK Government rolled out the degree apprenticeship programme in England and Wales which was developed as part of the higher apprenticeship standard. The programme is the equivalent of a master's or bachelor's degree which offers a level 6 – 7 qualification. Training for this qualification includes working in a full-time job as well as studying at a partner university or training provider. The equivalent programme in Scotland launched in 2016 is given the alternative name of a graduate apprenticeship, and is administered by Skills Development Scotland,
In 2022, Euan Blair's company Multiverse became the first solely apprenticeship provider to receive powers to award degrees.
