Apprenticeships in Computing and CPD
Upskill your business through the Institute of Coding.
About the Institute of Coding
The Institute of Coding is a government funded project to help close the digital skills gap. As part of this, we are creating courses and developing training to help businesses get the necessary skills to succeed in the digital age.
Our courses are developed in partnership with business. They can help with:
- entry-level digital skills
- soft and leadership skills
- advanced technical skills
Degree apprenticeships in computing
The Institute of Coding at Newcastle University has three postgraduate qualifications to improve digital skills in the North East and beyond. We designed these apprenticeships in computing to aid experienced professionals or recent graduates further develop their skills and knowledge in either data analytics or cyber security. Our software engineering is a conversion route allowing non-IT specialists to develop broad digital skills to work in IT. Our aim is to reduce the digital skills gap.
The apprenticeships build on the University’s outstanding academic reputation as a Russell Group member. It brings together expertise from across the University’s Schools of Computing, Mathematics, Statistics, and Physics, as well as the internationally triple-accredited Newcastle University Business School.
