You’ll study for your industry recognised apprenticeship qualification, learning both on the job at the BBC and off the job with our chosen education provider. The academic study involves attending instructor-led workshops, tutorial sessions, practical and library-based research, presentations, group work and real-world simulated projects.

The apprenticeship programme is structured across 3 learning levels:

  • Level 4: Covers Business Environment, Stakeholder Management, and Project Planning & Control

  • Level 6: Includes Programme & Portfolio Management, Project Leadership & Governance, and Change & Risk Management
  • The programme concludes with an integrated End Point Assessment (EPA)

This is a fixed-term apprenticeship - your contract lasts for the duration of the scheme.
