BSc (Hons) Chartered Surveyor (Rural): According to Lantra, land-based sectors needed 600,000 new employees by 2020 to avoid crisis – a number that the UK failed to reach. Here at Harper, we can develop your skills so you become one of the 600,000 needed to keep the land management, environment and surveyancy sectors flourishing. If you already have a relevant degree, then our RCIS accredited Rural Estate and Land Management MProf can be done in partnership with the apprenticeship. Popular with apprentices already working in the sector, you can achieve your level 7 in three years instead of five and work towards APC qualifications. “The degree apprenticeship is a great programme, and I am a massive advocate for this route. It is a fantastic way to earn and learn... the opportunity to work for a few weeks and then study for a week creates a very good balance. It is a great experience to work within a company and I always looked forward to my weeks at Harper.” Thomas Saunders, Rural Chartered Surveyor Degree Apprenticeship.

I'd say I feel more supported now on this course than when I was actually at university. You know, everyone's there if you need any help, I couldn't knock it at all. It's been an amazing experience.” OliviaHarrison, BSc (Hons) Food Industry Technical Professional BSc (Hons) Vet Technician (livestock): The first of its kind in England, our Vet Technical Apprenticeship was designed by industry and sector needs.
