Looking to hire a junior developer? Have you considered hiring an apprentice?

Apprenticeship programmes have been identified as one of the means to close the digital skills gap in our region. If you’re looking for junior developers, apprenticeship schemes could help you connect with talent before they even reach the jobs' market.

Join us on 29th June 2017 for an event with University of Chichester’s Business School and local employers to find out more about the Digital and Technical Solutions (Software Engineer) Degree Apprenticeship programme.

The University of Chichester runs an IT (Software Engineering) Degree Apprenticeship programme to provide its students with both degree-level learning and practical business experience.

If you think your business could benefit from the scheme and would like to hear from other Wired Sussex member companies already involved or ask us questions, come along to this briefing event on the 29th June at the Skiff in Brighton.
