Registration is open for recruitment for Southern Regional College’s Higher Level Apprenticeship (HLA) courses and SRC offer FREE advice, guidance, marketing, and direct access to applicants to easily aid businesses to select and recruit HLA’s.

SRC’s HLA programme offers 18 distinct pathways including 13 Foundation Degrees at Level 5 and 5 Bachelor’s Degrees at Level 6 to help you address recruitment needs across Construction, Engineering, Business, Sport, Hospitality, Computing and Science. Employers are able to choose to upskill existing staff or recruit from a talent pool of applicants provided by SRC.

HLA’s become full-time employees of your company, dedicating one day per week during term time for off-the-job training at SRC and spend the rest of the time with their employer gaining hands-on, practical experience.

HLA’s will graduate not only with desirable qualifications, but also at least 2 years’ experience (depending on the length of the course) and knowledge of your business in their chosen subject area, helping propel your business forward and grow your talent pipeline.

Why should you recruit with SRC?
SRC offers a free apprentice recruitment service and all selection and recruitment is controlled by the employer, giving you the ability to enhance entry criteria to meet your specific needs. Moreover, tuition and registration costs for HLA programmes are covered by the Department for the Economy.

In September 2023, SRC enrolled a record-high of 224 year 1 HLA apprentices with 156 employers. The momentum continues into 2024, with the volume of applications for September 2024 continuing to rise.

To showcase the success stories and experiences of HLA apprentices, SRC hosts the HLA Spotlight Series every Friday on our social media, featuring insights from past and present HLA’s where you can find out more about life as a HLA.
