How this apprenticeship programme works
We run open multi-employer programmes, and closed single-employer programmes. Please contact us by emailing apprenticeships@libf.ac.uk to find out more about our minimum cohort size requirements.
You can choose from two routes, both of which lead to chartered status:
the degree route, generally suited to entry-level staff, leads to a BSc (Hons) Finance & Investment
