Degree apprenticeship programme takes students to the next level

19th August 2019

A fully-funded degree apprenticeship programme is encouraging young people to consider an alternative route when it comes to the next stage of their education and future employment.

Danske Bank’s, Danske Futures scheme will appoint successful applicants to a paid role within Danske’s Personal Banking and Small Business team or Operations team in locations across Northern Ireland. At the same time, participants will study part-time for a fully funded BSc Hons degree in Managing the Customer Contact at Ulster University.

HR Director at Danske Bank, Caroline van der Feltz said:

“Compared to other UK regions, Northern Ireland has the highest number of school leavers moving on to university. While that is seen as the traditional path, there are other options. By enabling students to earn money and gain crucial work experience while studying for a fully-funded degree and earning a salary, Danske Futures provides a fantastic opportunity for bright and ambitious young people to get ahead in their career, differentiate themselves when they graduate and finish their education without the burden of a heavy debt.”

The deadline for applications is August 27th 2019.
