BNY Mellon apprentices on the fast track to success

The Advanced Apprenticeship scheme developed by BNY Mellon and The National
Skills Academy for Financial Services (NSAFS) offers a fast track to career success and job satisfaction, with 75 per cent of apprentices securing more senior roles after taking part in the scheme.

Analysis of the programme has shown that the scheme also creates high staff satisfaction and loyalty with nine out of ten people who have completed the programme over the past four years remaining with the leading securities services company.

Since it was established four years ago, 110 staff have studied under the Advanced Apprenticeship. The Apprenticeship, a combination of work-based development, vocational learning and professional qualifications, offers staff access to education while forging a career with the organisation.

The programme is offered to graduates and non-graduates in the firm’s Manchester office and was developed by Manchester Skills Solutions, the lead training provider for the NSAFS in the North West, and includes mentoring programs and a specific degree-level qualification developed in conjunction with Manchester Metropolitan University.

Sylvia Perrins, CEO of the NSAFS, commented: ‘BNY Mellon has shown how successful the Apprenticeship programme can be.’
