Both my son and I served apprenticeships and gained so much from the experience. New skills. Salary. No debt. A real launchpad to get ahead in life.

That is why today, at the start of National Apprenticeship Week, we are announcing that from this autumn @ucas_online will expand their service so that young people can see more personalised options including apprenticeships.

From 2024, students will then be able to apply for apprenticeships through @ucas_online alongside an undergraduate degree application.

By putting apprenticeships side-by-side with undergraduate degrees, we can help students make the very best decisions for their career – getting into good jobs that help to grow the economy.
