As the summer term approaches for students, you may want to be thinking about the career path you want to take come September, we are delighted to offer the Applegate Workplace Degree Programme to study Business Management starting in September 2018.
The Applegate Workplace Degree Programme has now been running for 2 years with our first 3 students successfully completing the first year. Three more students joined us in September 2017 and are all enrolled on a Business Management Degree that is run in partnership with Plymouth University, via Petroc in Barnstaple.
Phoebe Ward, Jack Richards and James Parker are the latest recruits who have enrolled on the programme, with Applegate fully covering the fees of their tuition. They work four and a half days a week and study for the remaining afternoon during their five-year syllabus that is scheduled to run between 2017 and 2022.
Some comments our Workplace Degree students said are outlined below:

“My degree is paid for, I’m living in beautiful North Devon and I’m on my way to gaining a whole five years’ experience in the field I’ve always wanted to be employed in.” – Jack Richards
“I chose the apprenticeship scheme as it will broaden my knowledge within the sector and help me to make a committed and considered decision for my future” – Jon Loates
