Our Digital & Technology Solutions Degree Apprenticeships are aimed at people who have a passion for learning and innovation.
Increasingly automated. Ever more sophisticated. This is the future our vision holds for our vehicles. As a Digital & Technology Solutions Degree Apprentice, you will implement technology solutions aligned to your pathway, to develop new products and services and increase productivity using digital technologies. JLR is a world leader in engineering – we make incredible luxury vehicles. Our aspirations are no different for Digital & Technology. Our people, our teams and our culture are at the heart of everything we do. We are natives of the Agile and “DevOps” world and are here to solve complex technical challenges.
The Level 6 Digital and Technology Solutions Degree apprenticeship programme takes four years to complete and adheres to the Institute for Apprenticeships & Technical Education (IfATE) Digital and Technology Solutions Professional standard.
As an apprentice, you will develop the Knowledge, Skills, and Behaviours (KSBs) outlined in the apprenticeship standard. These will be assessed during your End Point Assessment (EPA), where you will demonstrate the competencies and skills you’ve gained throughout the programme.
What to expect
During your apprenticeship, you’ll gain valuable hands-on experience and career-building skills while working at the forefront of the automotive industry. This exciting programme is designed to help you build practical skills, deepen your foundational knowledge, and develop essential business behaviours such as teamwork and problem-solving. And you’ll be supported by a JLR early careers cohort leader, the university team, and your line manager every step of the way.
You’ll achieve a BSc (Hons) degree in Digital and Technology Solutions developed in conjunction with the University of Warwick.
Year 1 – 2
This programme is delivered through a combination of online study, face-to-face lectures, independent learning each week. This gives you the chance to apply your learning from University of Warwick to projects in a real-world environment. You’ll study a range of modules designed to build your essential knowledge, skills and behaviours, with regular process reviews along the way to ensure you’re getting the support you need from your tutors and line manager.
Years 3-4
In years 3 and 4 you will complete modules related to your chosen specialism – Cyber Security. In your final year, you’ll complete a work-based project as part of your End Point Assessment (EPA). This is an opportunity for you to use the skills and experience you gained throughout your time on the programme and apply them directly to your role. And when you’ve successfully completed your EPA, you’ll achieve your Level 6 Apprenticeship and take on new responsibilities and make a meaningful impact within the business.
As a cyber security apprentice, you will join our Digital Product Platform (DPP) team.
