The Senior People Professional Apprenticeship allows participants to draw upon their existing human resources or management experience, providing a supportive environment to develop new skills and knowledge, applicable to their current role and organisation.

The programme is designed to strengthen apprentices people management expertise and enable them to become empowered to succeed within human resource management.

• The apprenticeship is suitable for individuals currently working in any organisation and sector, who wish to progress into a Senior People Professional position.
• It is aimed at individuals who are currently in a management role, seeking to develop their HR experience.
