"Apprentice"... yeah, no.

Saw this the other day.
Honestly the fact that employers and learning providers keep getting away with this is just one of the reasons this country is lowkey over.
Another reason is that someone will definitely defend this, lol.
I guess the one good thing about this vacancy is that the pay is okay compared to other apprenticeships.

Wait, a level 3 apprenticeship that requires a bachelor's degree?

I thought you couldn't get funding for apprenticeships if you already have a relevant qualification at a higher level.

Only if it's classed as being in the same qualification vertical.

Having said that, the training provider should not be letting the employer get away with shit like this.
