When apprentices successfully complete the end point assessment for this course, they will receive a degree apprenticeship certificate from the relevant awarding body and an academic degree – the BSc (Hons) Digital and Technology Solutions: Cyber Security (Degree Apprenticeship Route) from the University of Bolton. Face-to-face sessions and one-to-one support are offered by our dedicated staff team, who offer a wide range of professional experience, industry knowledge, technical expertise and academic credentials. We'll support apprentices to develop sought-after skills such as background research, critical reasoning and problem-solving, professional communication, time management, teamwork, and lifelong learning. During the final stage of the course, your apprentice will undertake a substantial work-based research project, the nature of which will be identified and developed through consultation between the organisation and the University. As well as offering the apprentice valuable experience, this live project can give a genuine insight into potential opportunities or improvements that can benefit your organisation. Entry Criteria 104 UCAS points. We accept a full range of qualifications that carry UCAS points, including A-levels, BTECs and T-levels. Please see our guide to the UCAS Tariff for examples of how to achieve these points. For most courses, we are also able to consider non-tariffable qualifications. The applicant’s Level 3 subjects must include a technology-related subject; for instance, A-level Mathematics or BTEC Extended Diploma in Computing. Applicants should have five GCSEs at grade C or above or grade 4 to 9 (or equivalent), including English and Mathematics. Admission to this programme is only available to applicants who meet ESFA eligibility criteria, including the following: 1) They are employed for a minimum of 30 hours per week in a role relevant to the apprenticeship. 2) They have valid residency status and the right to work in England and can provide a valid BRP card (valid beyond the end date of the programme including End-Point Assessment (EPA)), and a ‘Right to Work’ share code for validation. 3) Their employer is willing to sponsor them to spend a minimum of six hours per week of their time in off-the-job training, including attending the University (times and dates to be determined) for the duration of their course. Please note that an apprentice cannot be self-employed. Applicants will attend a joint discussion with their employer and the University of Bolton. This combined interview and onboarding discussion fosters trust and sets the tone of the relationship between the applicant, their employer and our tutors. To be eligible for tuition fee funding through the Apprenticeship Levy, candidates should not normally have already completed a qualification at the same level as the proposed apprenticeship, unless that qualification was gained in a completely unrelated discipline.
