From January (2025), Bright Horizons employees will be able to complete a Level 5 Early Years Lead Practitioner Apprenticeship – a qualification equivalent to a foundation degree, designed for leadership roles – through the partnership.
The qualification will cover child development, educational psychology and inclusive practices. To accommodate working professionals, the course will offer flexible learning options – online modules and weekend workshops. Distance learning options are also available.
Learners will have access to NTU resources, including the University’s virtual library.
Talent and development lead at Bright Horizons, James Butler, said, ‘We are thrilled to partner with Nottingham Trent University to offer this new qualification. This training programme is a gateway for our people who are looking to deepen their expertise and advance to the next level in their careers. This partnership with such a highly acclaimed institution reflects our commitment to providing high-quality professional development opportunities for educators, ultimately benefiting the children and families we serve.’
