Vocational, technical and professional education has been the beating heart of modern universities from the very start. Working in partnership with employers, often in their local regions, they have created high-quality, work-focused courses that ensure graduates are fully equipped with the skills and knowledge they need to be job-ready on day one. These modern universities are driving forward the degree apprenticeship agenda that will create new opportunities for young people.
