Rural Practice Chartered Surveyor Degree Level Apprenticeship - The Harper Adams Experience 22 Oct 2024

What we have learned

Degree Apprenticeships have provided an opportunity for candidates who did not feel a full-time degree course was the right choice for them; this is for a variety of reasons including the desire to start their career and working life as soon as possible. Recruiting an apprentice gives employers the option to look further than traditional graduate roles to bring more people into the industry.

At Harper Adams we have just enrolled our 7^th intake of degree level apprentices onto our RICS Accredited BSc (Hons) Rural Enterprise and Land Management degree. This session will be an opportunity for you to hear from apprentices, employers and professionals about the experience of our apprenticeship journey, the benefits and good practice associated with employing and being an apprentice.

You will also hear from the apprenticeships team here at 缅北禁地 who will explain funding and apprenticeship regulation and how you can reserve a place on the next courses starting in September 2025.
