The course is delivered part-time over a 2 year period, culminating with an end point assessment exercise. Apprentices are required to spend no more than 12 days per year on campus (two full weeks and up to two additional days), supported by regular distance learning support sessions for each module. In addition, Apprentices are required to perform research, self-study and assessment exercises accumulating into a total of 20% off-job training time (one day per week).

Following successful completion of the taught modules apprentices produce a report, evidenced by a portfolio that forms part of an end-point assessment (EPA) exercise. Successful completion of the EPA results in the awarding of a Master’s Degree qualification at either pass, merit or distinction level.

An undergraduate degree in a computing related discipline (2:2 classification or above).

In absence of formal qualifications, previous relevant knowledge and experience may also be taken into consideration, on a case by case basis.

Applicants without English and Maths GCSE or equivalent at C or above will need to achieve these qualifications before entry to the course.

Please note applications are submitted through the relevant employer, not directly from applicants.

Before starting an apprenticeship, applicants will be required to sign a “Commitment Statement” which details key information regarding the apprenticeship such as learning requirements, responsibilities of the apprentice, employer and university, assessments, delivery schedule, etc, some of which are detailed below.
