Learning takes place over 13 months with an additional 6-month period at the end to complete a work-based project proposal. 

At the end of the Professional Manager Level 5 Apprenticeship, you will have the option to progress to the Chartered Manager Degree Apprenticeship (levy funded). 

At the end of the Senior Leader Higher Level 7 Apprenticeship you will have the option to top-up to an MSc degree at the end of the course (non-levy funded).

Apprenticeships are 100% funded using levy funds for levy-paying organisations, and are 95% funded from the levy for non-levy-paying organisations.

A non-levy organisation would therefore pay £700 (based on 5% of £14,000) for level 7 and £350 (based on 5% of £7,000) for level 5. The small fee is divided and paid in equal instalments over the duration of learning ensuring affordability for all organisations, no matter what their size.

Organisations are required to set up an account to enable the funds to be transferred from the Levy.

Many local authorities have schemes which cover the 5% fee for organisations in their region. We can connect any non-levy paying organisation with their local authority in order to discuss this further.

To apply you will need to:

• Be in full time employment (minimum of 30 hours per week)
• Be employed in a relevant role
• Have the commitment of your employer to support you through the programm
• Have GCSE Maths and English Level 4 or above, or be prepared to achieve this within 13 months of starting the programme

Applicants will be required to complete an online Registration Of Interest and this will then be followed up by an initial meeting with a member of our Apprenticeship team. Places on the programme are limited and the aim is to have people from across the various organisations and sectors which make up the Kirklees Health and Care Partnership.
