No published policyModern Apprenticeships

Unconfirmed. The Roslin Institute publishes no sponsorship policy for its modern apprenticeships, so we cannot state a firm answer. The Roslin Institute is an animal bioscience research institute at the University of Edinburgh's Easter Bush campus. It is investing in a series of modern apprenticeships across the Institute and the wider campus, with Campus Operations recruiting into operational areas. At the time of writing there are four apprentices across the Institute and the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies, in IT Technical Support, Digital Resources, Stable hand and Purchasing and Stores. Apprenticeships normally last 12 to 24 months and require completion of a formal national qualification. The Institute says the campus will continue to invest in apprentices in operational areas and directs candidates to its staff vacancies pages and to the University of Edinburgh's modern apprentice listings. No apprentice wage and no sponsorship position is published.

The catch: These are operational apprenticeships, not research ones. The four published areas are IT support, digital resources, stable hand and purchasing, so a candidate expecting a laboratory science apprenticeship will not find one here.
