BA (Hons) Social Work (Integrated Degree Apprenticeship)

The BA (Hons) Social Work (Integrated Degree Apprenticeship) combines academic study with valuable 'on the job' experience, preparing you to make a real difference in people’s lives. You’ll study while working full-time, supported by your employer, a workplace mentor, and our experienced teaching staff. Government funding through the apprenticeship levy means there’s no cost to you. Throughout your studies, you’ll link classroom learning to practice, developing the knowledge, skills, and behaviours you’ll need to thrive in your role. People with lived experience of social work practice, carers, and practitioners are actively involved in teaching, giving you insight into real world perspectives, while guest speakers and lived experience sessions bring the realities of practice into the classroom.
