BCS IT AND DIGITAL APPRENTICESHIPS

As the Chartered Institute for IT, we’ve developed high-quality end-point assessment and knowledge modules for the digital apprenticeship standards.

BCS is the leading end-point assessment organisation for the IT profession, supporting apprentices, employers, and training providers on the apprenticeship journey. Quality is at the heart of our apprenticeship delivery so that apprentices receive both a positive and robust assessment experience.

All digital apprentices that successfully complete their end-point assessment with BCS automatically qualify for Associate BCS membership and RITTech registration.

CHAMPIONING APPRENTICES

At BCS, we believe apprentices should enjoy parity with every other career choice, here are some of the ways we’re helping to raise the profile of digital apprentices.

At the annual UK IT Industry Awards, we sponsor the Apprentice of the Year category.
We celebrate the achievements of digital apprentices by gathering their stories and sharing them with the IT community via our campaigns and case studies.
Our BCS employer events bring the digital community together to share ideas, discuss challenges and drive debate. For example, we hold our BCS Insights event annually and a number of topical webinars throughout the year.
We are proud to sponsor the National Apprenticeship Awards SME Employer of the Year 2021
