The 5X社区视频 has announced that it is launching a new Level 6 degree apprenticeship for Data Analytics and Digital Solutions for Business, to meet the needs of local employers and to upskill their workforce.
Starting in January 2025, this new apprenticeship programme has been designed to prepare people for a career at the cutting edge of business analytics and computer science. The programme is taught by 5X社区视频 experts in the field and will help individuals to develop quantitative and analytical skills, as well as coding and programming capabilities required by modern business analysts in a variety of sectors.
A degree apprenticeship allows people to study for a degree 20% of their time whilst staying in employment, benefitting employers who want to develop and retain their staff.
As part of the the 5X社区视频’s first cohort of apprentices started in September in Manufacturing Engineering, and Data Science and Artificial Intelligence, making this the third apprenticeship to be offered. More are currently in development with local industry.
Geraldine Turton, Head of Apprenticeships at the 5X社区视频, said: “We are delighted to be expanding our degree apprenticeship offering, to build on the success of our current Data Science and Artificial intelligence apprenticeship course. The digital technology economy is growing quickly across the South East with ICT and digital sectors in Brighton growing by 40% in the last five years. Skills England have also identified that digital skills will be in critical demand, across a range of sectors so it is important to offer courses to meet these skills needs.
“We have been working with local employers to provide the apprenticeships they need for their business and will be continuing this conversation around new degree apprenticeships that we have planned for next year, so if you are interested, please get in touch.”
