Finding experienced creative and digital talent can be challenging. Apprenticeships offer a practical alternative, enabling you to develop the specialist creative design and user experience skills your organisation needs.

There’s still time to recruit new talent or upskill existing employees through Manchester Met’s creative and digital technology degree apprenticeship programmes starting this September.

Spaces are available of the following programmes starting September 2026:

Creative Digital Design Professional Degree Apprenticeship

Develop in-house creative capability with professionals who can create engaging digital experiences, strengthen brand presence, and deliver high-quality, mobile-first design solutions that support customer engagement and business growth.

Digital User Experience (UX) Professional Degree Apprenticeship

Funding for employers

While the cost of an apprenticeship will vary depending on your payroll bill, the funding has been designed to make it easy and affordable for employers to access. Levy-paying employers can use their Apprenticeship Levy funds to pay for training, while non-levy employers typically contribute just 5% of the training costs.

By investing in these programmes, you’re not only addressing immediate skill gaps but also building a future-proof workforce capable of adapting to new technologies and trends.

September applications are closing soon.
