University Centre Quayside (UCQ) is pleased to announce the launch of its new Associate Project Manager Apprenticeship (Level 4). This work-based programme is designed to develop professionally competent project managers through a blend of structured learning, practical application, and professional development.
Apprentices gain a solid foundation in project management principles while developing key knowledge, skills and behaviours across areas such as planning, governance, stakeholder engagement, risk, quality, and procurement. On completion, apprentices achieve the CMI Associate Project Manager Apprenticeship and can apply for professional accreditation with relevant industry bodies.
Delivered through a flexible hybrid model, the programme includes live Teams webinars, academic assignments, projects, case studies and work-based evidence, ensuring immediate value to employers.
The 14-month programme starts from February 2026, with multiple cohorts throughout the year. Funding is available via the apprenticeship levy or co-funding (5%).
