Professional Policing Practice, BSc (Hons) - Degree Apprenticeship

You will already be a serving police officer when completing this programme. On completion, you will be ideally placed for further progression within your organisation. You can then look to move into higher ranks and specialisation in many fields.

Policing offers a wide variety of interesting roles. You could choose to remain in the response policing role or move into areas such as criminal investigation, child protection, community policing, armed response, cyber investigations or many more exciting roles unique to policing.

All apprentices complete end-point assessment (EPA). This assesses all the knowledge, skills and behaviours you have learnt throughout your apprenticeship.

It’s taken at the very end of the on-programme phase of the degree when your employer and the University are satisfied that you have met all the course requirements related to both the apprenticeship standard and degree assessment.

End-point-assessments are graded, and in addition to your degree qualification, you will be awarded an apprenticeship certificate on successful completion of your EPA.

The University has many learning resources both on and off campus. This includes online access to other libraries and information services (which may be closer to you) through schemes such as SCONUL Access and an Inter-Library Loans Service.

There’s also an information skills training programme, IT help and advice from LIS Customer Support.

And you’ll be able to remotely link to the university’s network account, the library's electronic resources and some core software applications.
