About Apprenticeships
Apprenticeships provide a well-defined route for internal talent development in England*. Apprenticeships are available to both new and existing employees who work 30 hours or more per week. Funded by the Apprenticeship Levy, apprenticeships are a cost-effective way to upskill employees in analytics, data science and AI.
*If not employed in England, apprenticeships can be funded commercially.
