Strengthen your workforce through apprenticeships

Healthcare degree apprenticeships at Anglia Ruskin University help employers upskill existing staff and attract new talent into critical roles across health and social care. By offering clear progression routes, organisations can improve retention, reduce recruitment pressures and build a resilient, skilled workforce.

We work in partnership with a wide range of providers – including NHS trusts, private hospitals, GP surgeries, registered nursing homes and hospices – to support workforce planning, recruitment and long-term staff development. Apprentices apply learning directly in the workplace, ensuring training aligns with service needs and professional standards while supporting high-quality care.

Training costs can be covered through the Apprenticeship Levy or, for non-Levy paying employers, with just a 5% contribution. Healthcare degree apprenticeships offer a cost-effective, sustainable solution to developing and retaining future-ready healthcare professionals.
