The training arm of the Manufacturing Technology Centre - MTC Training - has joined forces with leading global training provider BPP to boost its range of apprenticeships.
The partnership aims effort to tackle skills shortages in manufacturing and engineering and will provide apprenticeships and degree apprenticeships in a range of disciplines needed in advanced manufacturing organisations.
The portfolio of apprenticeships - from Level 3 to Level 7 Masters degrees - will cover digital technologies and the use of data, in line with the UK's national skills strategy, accelerating MTC Training's commitment to support the country's manufacturing future.
Apprenticeships on offer in the new partnership include digital and technology solutions, data science and data analysis, and an MSc degree in applied data analytics.
