Description

The Army's Apprenticeship Programme currently offers apprenticeships at Levels 2, 3 and 4. In
2018 a Level 6 apprenticeship, the Chartered Manager Degree Apprenticeship (CMDA), was
offered on a trial basis to the NCO and WO cohort. 90 places have been provided, across 3
cohorts of 30 apprentices and 2 different learning providers. On successful completion of the
programme (approx 42 months) apprentices achieve an honours degree in leadership and
management and Chartered Manager status from the Chartered Management Institute (CMI).

Army Command Plan 20 highlights the requirement to attract and retain the right people, as well
as maximising talent and improving organisational culture.
