Degree eligibility

None

Morning all,

I have an applicant who holds a degree in mechanical engineering and is looking to enrol on a L3 Motor vehicle apprenticeship.  A skills scan has been completed and we would start them part way through the programme and monitor.

Am I correct in thinking I can still fund them for their planned duration?

Many thanks

Jules

As long as you're happy with the robustness of your skills scan process and are content that the below has been satisfied, then yes:

52.2. We will fund an apprentice to undertake an apprenticeship at the same or lower level than a qualification they already hold, if the apprenticeship will allow the individual to acquire substantive new skills and the provider can show that the content of the training is materially different from any prior qualification or a previous apprenticeship.

...and that what they've got left to do is still 12 months worth of 6 hours a week!
