Learn, Earn and Serve

Through exploring the alternative pathways for students to gain additional qualifications, we are hoping to provide more options for those who aren’t enthusiastic about gaining a degree through the traditional route but wish to further their education.
This will provide individuals to learn, earn and serve. This combination coupled with the variety of job roles within each force could be the perfect solution for a student.
Not all these options require the commitment of enlisting into the forces and may only span over a year to give an individual an idea of what a career with them could be like whilst still gaining additional qualifications.
Additionally, there are options for students to further themselves whilst on or holding a degree qualification. This is ideal for those who are unsure about their career options once leaving education.

Can be offered in-school or virtual.
