Procurement People of Tomorrow: Higher and Further Education pack

This procurement Higher and Further Education Pack is a useful introductory tool for graduates with an interest in entering the procurement profession.


Graduate Apprenticeships

Graduate Apprenticeships (GAs) are a ground-breaking initiative, offering students fully funded degrees and providing employees with the skills companies need.

The Graduate Apprenticeship scheme provides flexible, work-based learning and is open to existing employees and new recruits. Apprentices continue to work full time, and are required to spend approximately one day each week on the Heriot-Watt campus in Edinburgh over four years.

Programme Content:

  • Procurement/Supply Chain Management
  • International Trade
  • Organisational Performance
  • Interpersonal Excellence
  • Personal Effectiveness
  • Change Management
  • Human Resources
  • Sales and Marketing

What will you gain?
After completing four years at university, you will receive a Bachelor of Honours Degree in Business Management.

Is there a cost?
GAs are fully funded by Skills Development Scotland (SDS) so there are no fees for employers or apprentices for the degree programme. Places are limited and in demand, and offered on a first-come first-served basis to qualified candidates.
